"Heart Sutra in Red Sunset":


Item 180017918295

Starts at only $12.99!

Branches of leaves in a brilliant sunset in shades of yellow, orange, red and purple. Some of the leaves are dancing in the air. A quote from the Zen Buddhist Heart of Perfect Wisdom sutra is painted in Chinese calligraphy:

Form itself is emptiness
Emptiness itself is form

The term "heart sutra" refers to the prayer at the heart of the Buddhist teachings. Writing it is a meditative practice.

The copyright watermark does not appear on the actual painting. 2.5" x 3.5" (ACEO - standard trading card size).
