I am putting this on some page 1 puzzles, to spread it around. As a writer, I was so psyched when I found this page, but I also immediately thought of some artists on here who might find it a good resource for puzzle subjects. I have no affiliation, just found it yesterday. I am putting this in my profile too, if someone wants to find it later.
"The Multilingual FolkTale Database is a website where you can read and share folktales, legends, fables, and fairy tales in your native language!
There are many different folk tales in the world, but many tales are variations on a limited number of themes. The classification system originally designed by Aarne, and later revised first by Thompson and later by Uther, is intended to bring out the similarities between tales by grouping variants of the same tale under the same ATU category."

Took me some effort to see the person meditating. What I saw was a buck-toothed snake, with cartoonish features.
For example, the top center - i.e. the head-of-the-meditator - looked to me like two cartoon eyes sticking up above the head - i.e. the upper body - in a way that is admittedly something you more often see in cartoon alligators than cartoon snakes. But the cross-legs of the person looked like the length/tail of the snake coiled around itself, while the hands looked like the aforementioned buck teeth.
Oddly enough, my reaction to good comedy is often more calming than meditation, so it rather fits that I saw something funny in this image. :)

The picture is hidden in the picture :-) You have to look well before seeing it... Very nice!
replyI thought this was going to be harder than it turned out to be. GREAT pic. Nice change of subjects.
