Crystal Lotus (Green), "Your Tranquil Heart"

Design Concept:

Drawing from the meditative wisdoms of Buddhism, Loretta H. Yang’s Tranquil Heart lotus flower represents the transcendence of worry and achievement of purity.  The lotus blossoms by rising through mud, symbolizing purity and flawless peace.  This exceptional type of beauty comes from within, a power of cleansing the heart and freeing oneself from negativity.  That purity is embodied in this glass piece, an artwork that expertly uses transparency to its advantage and expression.
