Comments on my painting Little Bikkhuni - from my Facebook page -

  • It's beautiful!
  • Kyi May Kaung Thank you, she's my favorite.
  • Kyi May Kaung Her robes and her face and little bald head were challenging to paint.
  • Kyi May Kaung Even her "pumpkin bag"
  • Sahana Chaudhuri The colors are so vibrant!
  • Kyi May Kaung Thank you - I love color and light.
  • Poe Ziwa Aunty--Is that real Bikkhuni form Burma or you draw illustriously.
  • Poe Ziwa I like this painting very much.
  • Thaw Nyain Very artistic painting, Ah Ma Gyi! Is the term Bikkhuni (or) Bikkhuni Ma?

  • Kyi May Kaung I painted from the photo of the real bikkhuni (Daw Thissawadi?) who was arrested for being ordained in Sri Lanka, but it does not look like her - none of the paintings I do from photos look like the people in the photo, sometimes they don't recognize themselves. Sometimes they seem to look like someone else. Sometimes they change gender. The correct term is bikkhuni (which is already female - grammar) as opposed to bikkhu (male) - See KMS above used bikkhuni, not bikkhuni ma, which is redundant, like saying table mesa (table table) or bento box(box box) - My friend who lived in Japan thought it hilarious when I ordered a bento box at Teaism - Thank you for all your likes and comments - I will send them to the current owner of the painting, who will be happy as it will increase the value of this painting.
