The inspiration for this painting was a photograph I took at the YADDO ARTIST'S RETREAT  in Saratoga Springs, NY where I live. 

Here is an article all about The Lotus Flower....

Today's Quotation: "Like the lotus, you experience three primary stages of evolution. The first is marked by ignorance and darkness, when you lie below the dense mud - a closed chysalis - which, by nature of existence, will eventually be pulled upwards by the warmth of the Sun. The second is exemplified by the climb through the clouded waters of your emotional experience, yet still the flower reaches to the Sun, knowing no other destiny ... no other purpose. The third brings full illumination in the splendour of the light. The Lotus flower blossoms, baring its exquisite beauty to all those who are aware, enough to recognize God unfolding."
-Patricia Cori
