Koi fish & the Dragon Fly painting | Vaastu Art India

“Zen Den – Meeting Point” captures a quiet exchange between two koi fish and a hovering dragonfly — a moment suspended between water and air.

Beneath the surface, the koi glide in gentle rhythm, embodying depth, flow, and perseverance. Above them, the dragonfly pauses lightly — symbolizing transformation, awareness, and presence. Their meeting is subtle yet intentional: different elements sharing the same space in harmony.

Part of the Candid Camaraderie series, this piece explores connection through coexistence across dimensions. The Water and Air elements meet. Stillness and motion balance each other.

The 26-inch circular canvas enhances the symbolism of wholeness and continuity, reinforcing the cyclical nature of connection and renewal.

Inspiration and Creative process

Inspired by the beautiful friendship blossoming between Koi fish & a dragonfly.

This is a mixed media painting & I have used various tools for mark making, adding textures like real leaves, threads, toys, texture paste, acrylic inks, paints etc. I have painted it in a very expressionist manner where the story unfolded on the canvas without any background preparation. It's like creating meaning from chaos which I enjoy very much.

Can you believe I used real leaves to create all the water lilies? Yes!! look closely & you'll see it.

I had so much fun creating this very unique painting.

This abstract realistic artwork is reflective of a very powerful bond...Friendship.

It is ready to hang & will truly add to the beauty of your your walls & space.
