Manjugosha on Blue Lion throne

 A recently completed exploration of Manjugosha, the gentle voiced prince of wisdom. Acrylic on board. The subtleties in the colour ranges are difficult to capture in a photograph.

Akasadhateshvari variations

 Akashadhatesvari is the Queen of Vajra space in the centre of the mandala of the five wisdoms, consort of Vairocana and embodiment of the Wisdom of Truth. I am experimenting with different ways of depicting her. I feel I have further to go to grasp her elusive essence.  In the meantime here is work in progress.
















She holds two lotuses on which sit the Dharmachakra wheel and a Vajra Bell. Her hands are in the teaching mudra turning the wheel of the Dharma.
