Bodhi," or enlightenment, is the ultimate goal of humans whether they are aware of it or not. Collectively and independently many spend their life seeking awareness. I believe it is a continuous process unfolding like a beautiful flower seeking wisdom and truth.
It all made sense to me after the paintings were finished. It's a culmination of the kind of work I do mixed with what little wisdom I have acquired in my lifetime. There is always more to continue improving my work and my soul.
