Original artwork description:

Is this a painting of an Orca or her companion?

Orcas symbolizes community, family, harmony, travel and protection. The fish is a companion and symbol of enlightenment.

The orca is covered with flowing designs and mandalas. The literal meaning of mandala, which is a Sanskrit word, is circle and like a circle, the mandala represents wholeness. A circle also denotes balance, perfection and eternity.

I enjoy the experience of painting mandalas. I can get lost in their colors, designs, and intricacies.

One of my favorite parts of this piece was painting the bubbles floating up.

Materials used:

Acrylic paint on gallery wrapped stretched canvas
