A Buddhist's Diary April 14th 2009

I don't really like the fat Buddha. Couldn't the Buddha be laughing and not fat? I know that he symbolizes well-being with his gross stomach, and I know that in hungry times fat was looked on a little differently than the way we see it today.

My Zen painting gets worse and worse as the year progresses, but I keep at it. I may try to portray a slender, laughing Buddha. Yes. My next project. If I think he looks good I may put him in the blog.
