A cluster of crimson and cream lotus blooms rises among large slate and teal lily pads, with ochre leaves and green seed pods on warm rice paper. The dark ink-washed leaves and the deep centers of the flowers disguise the finder squares and carry the dark modules. Pale petals and the light paper ground supply the light modules. Strong tonal contrast between charcoal leaf masses and the cream background keeps the pattern readable, and small ink splatters add a brush-painted touch.
