Happiness begins with peace

I used a lot of material in this work, the green part is made from cotton and for this mixed media artwork, I also used acrylic, poster colours, watercolours, markers and oil paints. The dove is 3d which was made separately and pasted on the painting. My idea of happiness is that when there is inner peace or peace in general there you would find happiness. I have shown an area which is surrounded by clouds and it looks gloomy and dull. The dove here which is also a symbol of peace is flapping its wings and showering peace on the people of this area which can be seen with the streaks of colours. The people here have colourful faces which shows that they are happy because they are at peace and they all have different things to be happy about. So for me, an expression of happiness is when you are at peace and when you believe that have nothing to lose and you are satisfied.
