Drawing Boards - Wheel Of Life - Part 1 - Skateboard Deck - 8.5"

This is the first board of a 3 part triptych.

Wheel of life series... sold as an individual but also perfect as collectors set to hang on the wall - From the artist's mouth -

"I've wanted to draw my version of the wheel of life for a long time, but always found the idea of it pretty daunting …  To be fair I was right... This is definitely the most intense detailed graphic I have ever drawn …. Definitely done a fair bit of soul searching in the process haha ..."

  1. The wild boar, pigeon and snake in the hub of the wheel represent the three poisons of ignorance, attachment and aversion.
  2. The second layer represents karma.
  3. The third layer represents the six realms of samsara.
  4. The fourth layer represents the twelve links of dependent origination.
  5. The figure holding the wheel (Yama) represents impermanence.
  6. The moon above the wheel represents liberation from samsara or cyclic existence.
  7. The Buddha pointing to the moon indicates that liberation is possible.

Single pressed board from HLC Factory, a long-lasting cold pressed design that outlives many other industry standards.

Made with 100% Canadian Maple throughout, the number one tried and tested skateboard hardwood.
