The Sky in general features a lot in my work. But a bunch of them, here, are more focused on it. The inspiration behind it all is from a Zen Buddhist saying:

“The true nature of your mind is like that of the sky”.

So the sky is there in each artwork. Each artwork is linked together by the clouds under the sky in different places and times.
The clouds are meant to closely resemble traditional Tibetan clouds that you’d see in their Buddhist paintings.
