Panda

Once I'd made the yellow chain on the red background, I knew it called for a photo in the corner, but who or what? After spending months putting off the decision, I thought contrasting the bright red and yellow with a dark photo, so I thought of a dark photo of an Islamic woman, then I thought, "Do I really want to get on that anti Islamic band wagon? so I put in the panda, thinking the green flora and gray ground might contrast well with the red background I painted. What do you think?

The red/yellow reminds me of Buddhist monks' crimson and saffron. I'm imagining a monk and panda reaching out their hands to each other on a neutral background. I think you've inspired me
