THE SHINING BUDDHA (2021) Ζωγραφική από Irina Markevich

THE SHINING BUDDHA
This is the first of a series of paintings about the search for the higher self within yourself - "Everyone has their own Buddha"
I wrote it as a kind of picture art therapy, conducted pictorial meditation, and I suddenly came to the image of the Buddha Shining in the stars, with his hands folded in certain signs-mudras.
Mudra is a special, symbolic arrangement of the hands, with which a person can control the energy inside and around him.

This is not surprising, because the hands are one of the main tools of human interaction with the world
The Buddha's hands remind me sometimes to chant the universal mudras: Gyan mudra and Akashi Mudra
The left hand is folded in the Gyan Mudra. It symbolizes the unity of the individual Self with the universe, the union of the soul and the supreme soul.
Bestows wisdom and enlightenment
The practice of this mudra helps the practitioner to eliminate negative energies and focus on achieving true knowledge.
Also, Gyan Mudra helps to improve memory, attention and nervous system
Prevents headaches, insomnia, depression, apathy
Promotes spiritual growth, relieves emotional tension, eliminates feelings of anxiety, anxiety, sadness, longing and depression

The right hand shows the Akasha Mudra, which is the Mudra of the Ether or the Sky. It increases the element of ether (space) in the body, brings a sense of harmony, peace, kindness and love.
Akasha mudra helps to feel stability, as well as strengthens positive thinking and destroys destructive programs in the mind and subconscious.
It also helps people who suffer from ear diseases and have poor hearing.
While this painting is in my house and waiting for a new owner, I constantly smile passing by, or suddenly hold my gaze, in a moment of anxiety, and I immediately let go of emotions.
So much radiant energy and at the same time peace in it. It also reminds me of magic finger yoga!
My painting is done in an intricate technique of optical gaps. This is a multi-layer painting, where I first applied a fluid texture, symbolizing the passage of time, and then layer-by-layer applied spectral colors in a certain sequence, finishing everything with stars unfurled. Now, under different lighting conditions, the lower layers flash with hidden colors here and there, creating a living fabric of matter in the space of the Universe. My painting will have the same effect, in normal light, it will show deep space, but once the sunbeams get in at a certain angle; beautiful flashes of color will break through the layers of paint.
I also used gold and copper tinsel (gold leaf) to accentuate the twinkle of the stars.
In the first photo, you can see the effect of the rays of light, the colors appear through the layers, and begin to literally burn!
The Buddha said that everything changes constantly, and my paint fully confirms this, the light during the day and the angle of view, constantly changing colors, color depth and flickering tinsel.

May 2021
60 cm / 70 cm / 3,5 cm
The ends of the picture are painted over
Painting technique - multi-layer optical gaps.
Colors literally "light up" from a ray of the sun. The painting changes depending on the lighting, when the light hits at a certain angle, the lower layers begin to glow.
I only use high-quality, long-lasting spectral pigments
