41. Decrease (Mountain over Lake)

2008, mixed media, 12"x12"

The stubborness symbolized by the mountain can transform to anger.

The joy symbolized by the lake can developed into growing desires.

So both must be reduced.

In turn, the mountain becomes a symbol of spirituality,

and the lake becomes a symbol of joy and sharing.

Thus, by self-control, and self-discipline we able to strengthen ourselves.
