Description

Sixth flower in the Floral Ladies series, and she is Lady Lotus, this one is based on Nelumbo Nucifera, the sacred flower that often symbolizes divinity : )

Lotus flowers have a long and rich symbolism in Asian cultures, often used in ancient lores as a sign of godhood, like in the stories of Nezha where he traded his human flesh and was given limbs made out of lotus flower instead, or often some deities would arrive sitting or standing on the Lotus Thrones (giant lotus flowers, basically) : D

Drew this in Painter, with the watercolour brush tool : )
