This is my favorite flower, particularly the pink and the purple lotuses. The lotus flower is most prominent in Buddhist teachings. Unfortunately though, the lotus flower is very rare here and sometimes I'm just happy to get a tulip flower as a gift. I haven't received any lotuses yet. If ever I get inked (hahaha as if it's going to happen!) this is what I'll get but I had to settle for a henna tat when I went to Puerto Galera.
90 Psyche revived by Cupid's Kiss
My all-time favorite sculpture by Antonio Canova. Ever since I saw a picture of this sculpture when we were studying art history during college, I fell in love with it. For a brief look of the myth that inspired this sculpture, visit this page.
89 Paisleys
I love paisleys!!!! I've always been fascinated with it because not one paisley pattern is alike. Sure it has the same tear-drop shape but that's about where the similarities end, you can stylize the inside adornments in whatever color and embellishments that you like. For a look at paisley's as an interior design trend, visit this page.
