In my travels around Asia, I had the opportunity to see Buddha artworks both online and in person, and I found them to be both mesmerizing and inspiring. The extent of their inspiration was comparable to the number of facets that may be found on an endless diamond. Each artist seemed to have a profound connection to a certain wave length of energy, truth, or purpose, and they tried to convey that connection via their artistic creations. I came seen paintings of Buddha that were composed of just his face or even just his eyes. There were paintings that covered his whole body, depicting him in a variety of poses, motions, and holding a variety of mudras. It is necessary for me to admit that the renderings that seemed to be my favorites were those that merely displayed the face of the Buddha. In contrast to the portrayals of the Buddha’s whole body, I felt these Buddha paintings to be more personal. I found the close-up of the eyes to be too abstract for my aesthetic sensibilities. My curiosity is piqued by those of you who are now reading this… The question is, “What have your experiences and emotions been like when you have seen different artworks of the Lord Buddha?” In addition to Batik Paintings, Hindu Paintings, Himachal Paintings, Kalighat Paintings, Kerla Paintings, Madhubani Paintings, Mithala Paintings, PHAD Paintings, Pichwai Paintings, Rajasthani Paintings, Tanjure Paintings, Ganesha Paintings, Guru Govind Singh Ji Paintings, Laddu Gopal Paintings, Jesus Paintings, Radha Krishna Paintings, Buddha Paintings, Seven Horses Paintings, Abstract Paintings, Birds and Animals Paintings, and European Paintings In addition, I like paintings that were more conventional in terms of shape and function, as well as detail, and that made use of oil paints rather than ink, mosaic, or water color. When compared to looking at a Van Gogh or an impressionistic style of Buddha, which did not really convey as well to me as the others, I found that the obvious lines, contours, shadows, and definitions were more appealing to me. We ask that you not feel restricted in your enjoyment of any kind of inspired art that brings you happiness and lifts your spirits. As for myself, I like having one or two Buddha paintings as focus pieces in the interior design scheme that I have chosen for my house. Painting of Buddha performed on canvas
