Vedic Om



Vedic Om


Ancient Vedic Om Symbol - You don't see it very much. It looks to me like a meditator sitting next to a river. I discovered it years ago when I encountered the work of JQ Gaines. JQ is an artist who, among other things, made the most exquisite likhita japa mandalas. She introduced me to likhita japa practice and the stroke progression for the Vedic Om

This image was done with a variety of colored markers on Borden & Riley #224 Paris Paper for Pens. The original was photographed with a Canon G7 MarkII camera and the resulting image post-processed with Snapseed and Stackables on an iPad mini.

For those unfamiliar with the practice of likhita japa, here is a good link.
