Clearly bhuddhist motive, not sure how to tag exactly. Parody perhaps?

The whole thing (and the obvious relation to and mockery of this) reminds me of a poem by Pushkin.

An artist-barbarian with a drowsy brush
Blackens over the painting of a genius
And senselessly draws on top of it
His own illegitimate designs.
But over the years the foreign paint
Flakes away like old scales,
And the genius’s work appears again
Before us in its former beauty.
Thus do delusions vanish
From my worried soul,
And in their place visions arise
Of pure, original days.

What are you talking about? it's the same artist. And I'm 99% certain that they are both a parody of already existing buddhist paintings

I'm aware of that much.

What I'm aware of is the Buddhist symbolism in the Madokami image; if there is any Buddhist symbolism in Homura's, it escapes me. So too are the paintings they are supposed to take after.

If it's the same artist, I'd say "mockery" is definitely not the right word

So a parody of a parody? Quite a mouthful, but OK.

Thanks for the share.

Actually, I wouldn't call it a parody either. I remember uploading those, they were actually posted together (actually you can see that they link to the same source). It's unclear which is a parody of which. I'd say "twin drawings" is more accurate

And nps, the whole page there is actually an interesting read
