Sayadaw U Pannathami's Dhammaduta

This is my second painting. I would like to give it a title as My Dhamma Duta. Whenever I travel for teaching around the world, I bring these bags, bowl and fan. The first painting I did was the Burmese Gong. Even though I do not know how to paint well, I am interested in painting and I enjoy look at paintings. When I paint my own, I am more happy and enjoy the process of painting. It is something like meditation, you have to have concentration, mindfulness, effort, wisdom and faith for doing the painting. I also get the idea from Jimmy who is a painter in Singapore. He helps me a lot and give me ideas for my painting. I started this painting in 2004 and only finished it in 2008. As I was not always in Singapore.
