Hand-Painted Compact Buddha Shakyamuni | Historical Buddha
This beautiful, compact Buddha Shakyamuni artwork is hand-painted with care, capturing the very essence of the historical Buddha. The cotton canvas provides a sturdy yet smooth surface, while the natural stone colors, sourced from minerals such as lapis lazuli, malachite, and azurite, add depth and vibrancy to the piece. These stone colors are finely ground into powders and mixed with water or a binding medium, resulting in a wonderfully brilliant finish. At the final stages, genuine 24K gold is lovingly applied to highlight sacred aspects, such as the halo and the Buddha's robes, adding a touch of divine radiance. Created in the traditional Karma Gadri style, this artwork beautifully conveys the Buddha's serene presence, representing the timeless nature of his teachings.
Shakyamuni Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, achieved enlightenment under the Bodhi tree and dedicated his life to teaching the path to liberation from suffering. His teachings emphasize the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, guiding practitioners in overcoming attachment, ignorance, and suffering. The thangka portrays a serene expression, meaningful hand gestures, and flowing robes, symbolizing his enlightenment and profound wisdom, compassion, and inner peace. The accents of 24K gold illuminate his divine qualities. At the same time, the natural stone colors lend the artwork an earthy and grounded feel, reflecting the Buddha's teachings about the interconnectedness of all things.
