SRAJD WEEKLY CHALLENGES
Wanted to share with you a piece I made for one of the SRAJD
weekly challenges. The theme was Kyoto,
Japan.
Here’s what I wrote about my entry: “There is a Buddhist temple
in Kyoto called Kinkaku-ji,
which I think translates to Temple of the Golden Pavilion. During
restoration of the historic pavilion, the building was gilded (painted with
layers of gold leaf). It is said the gold employed was to mitigate and
purify any pollution or negative thoughts and feelings towards death. My piece
represents the pagoda style tiered roofs of the pavilion with homage to the
gilding. I’ve added three pink accents to symbolize the cherry blossoms
of the beautiful surrounding gardens.”
And here’s the piece.
The next weekly challenge in June was Deadvlei,
Namibia.
Here’s what I made for that.
In this previous blog post, I showed you the
links for the first month, which was GEOMETRIC.
Here are the links for the ELEMENTS (April) and
GREEK GODS AND GODDESSES (May).
