Oil and Acrylic Portrait Painting on Canvas, ‘Light Your Way’

On a red-hot background, Aricadia in Bali paints Gautama Buddha in rich detail, illuminating the spiritual teacher with cool blues and greens. “If you turn on the light for someone, it will also brighten your path and the world will be light too,” the artist says of his painting. “Because the love that radiates spreads like a virus of kindness that spreads without limits.”
