Art speak volumes when interpreted using Language

Theme: Emotional well-being

The digital art displays an image of a girl in a meditative pose who is concentrating on her thoughts. The glowing light represents the bright energy of the sunlight showered on her, helping her to introspect. The butterflies  cluttered on her head denotes her thoughts that keep hovering in this state of concentration.

The colourful butterflies showcase a variety of emotions. Pink symbolizing grace, green serenity, purple  royalty, yellow  joy and white  tranquility. However, the yellow reflection under her eyes radiates energy and glow of her thoughts. The complete expression of her face reflects soothing and inner peace being felt in this state. Although her head looks voluminous, her thoughts are light and calm, reinforcing her mental and emotional peace. The graceful yet simple costume with its soothing colours make the emotions and the ambience divine.
