#100 mudras - 60/100 - Padma Mudra III

PADMA MUDRA - The Hand Gesture of Loving Kindness. It directly translates to "Lotus Seal" in Sanskrit. This pose symbolizes a beautiful bud yearning toward the light, growing out of the deep dark muck of the pond water. From there, a flower emerges. When we practice this mudra, we cultivate faith that as long as we stay rooted, we can move toward the light and emerge as the best version of ourselves.

Watercolor, ink, and metallic ink, 12-in by 18-in.
