This painting is a technique called drop paint where you fill a cup with different colour paints (with out mixing them together). Placing the work area over the top and letting it set for a minuet and lifting the cup up to revile the marbling effect. These colours remind me of some hypnotic and hallucinations.
Trying to go with the hypnotic ideas, using black ink to draw a lotus flower for the myth of the flowers hypnotic and hallucinogenic powers.
