Om Symbol
Hindu / Buddhist Print

ॐ Om

This is a print of the sacred Om symbol (sometimes romanized as "Aum"). This symbol is used in various Dharmic religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. Most will associate this as a mantra and mystical sound of Hindu origin.

This is printed on handmade/handpressed Chinese xuan paper with a high-fiber content (you will see lots of natural husks and fibers pressed into this paper). The artwork was then mounted with a gold silk brocade border. You will need to frame this once it arrives. I suggest getting a frame from Art-to-Frame. I just discovered this company, but am impressed that they offer custom frames for such a low price. This size (16x16) is can be under $14 for a custom frame plus shipping.

The result is a beautiful and elegant presentation of Om.

The print was created on a $4000+ commercial printer with German UV-resistant ink. The fine lines and complex geometry would make it impractical to paint this artwork by hand (or at the very least, it would cost 3x more if inked by hand).
