"There is no need for temples, no
need for complicated philosophies.
My brain and my heart are my temples;
my philosophy is kindness. "
~ Dalai Lama


This was done as a studyproject for art-classes,
illustrating correlations of quotes and imitation - and
this was my first attempt at doing some serious typography.
I tried to use either entire parts of Dalai Lama's
speeches or significant words from him.
Huge inspiration came from *dylanroscover and
of course ~Straye-Close
I've been practically working on this piece every
moment I could spare the last couple of days
and am happy I didn't give up!!!

Here's a link to the work-in-progress-gif: [link]

From my point of view I am very happy that I met His Holiness Dalai Lama in my life. And this is a great and unusual way of portraying him. LOVELY!!!

This is a true good aim for your life! You cannot express this experience of meeting H.H. Dalai Lama in words!!
