"Deva" is a captivating artwork by Michael Parkes, renowned for his surreal and dreamlike imagery. The painting features a woman, possibly a goddess, with a serene expression, draped in flowing fabrics and holding a delicate stem. Two felines, one a lively leopard and the other a slumbering lion, add a mystical element to the composition. The ethereal quality of the painting, coupled with the rich symbolism and meticulous detail, invites viewers into a world of fantasy and wonder.
