Plate painting: Lotus

Overview

Lotus, also known as lotus, is praised by the world for its ability to emerge from the mud without being stained. According to legend, Guanshiyin Bodhisattva likes lotus flowers very much and uses lotus flowers as his seat. There is a folk saying that Guanyin sits on the lotus platform in meditation. For the dinner plate painting I made today, I tried to keep the colors and materials simple and clear. Lotus uses three different ingredients (separate independently), carrots, white radish, and Xin Xin Mei, allowing netizens to see different lotus effects from different ingredients. At the same time, put lotus flowers, lotus roots, and lotus seeds together. Haha, the whole family is reunited. In addition, in order to increase the sense of agility and vitality, a small fish was added, which symbolizes the fish playing with the lotus or the fish splashing against the lotus
