"Buddha - Japan"

Inspired by the photograph a friend of mine took during her trip to Japan, "Buddha - Japan" is the third in my Buddha series. The tarnished copper green rustic finish was what I was after. This also captures Buddha in the meditation pose at an angle which was a challenge in itself to accurately capture the proportions. Also done on a 9" x 12" Uart sanded paper with a water color under-painting and Mungyo and Sennelier pastels for the painting itself.
