A bare-bellied Buddha reclines skyward in open laughter, one hand behind his head and the other pointing forward, his ample belly and sweeping robes conveying carefree ease.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The Big-Bellied Buddha\" echoes the saying \"a great belly can contain what the world finds hard to bear\"—the great belly symbolizes tolerance and open-mindedness. Reclining and laughing under heaven, he embodies the wisdom of embracing all things and keeping a constant smile, with a generous, optimistic heart. With condensed, bold brushwork and exaggerated yet vivid forms, the artist captures each figure's spirit in just a few strokes. Each piece is an original hand-painted work, never reproduced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSize: approx. 138x69.5cm (8.5 square chi) | Traditional Hand-Painted Chinese Ink Figure Painting\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-top:14px;padding-top:8px;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;font-size:12px;color:#888;line-height:1.6;\"\u003eCopyright Notice: All artwork images are provided for browsing and pre-purchase reference only.
