Spiritual n Abstract

Natraj

This is Lord Shiva, as Natraj, performing Tandav...the dance of death and creation... HE is seen to be dancing on a Dwarf Asura- Apasmara in most Natraj Idol and image depictions, but I have taken the creative liberty to replace Apasmara with Corona virus. since I had painted this acrylics work during the Lockdown time, urging Lord Natraj to bring an end to the Corona era, and bless us with a new life after.

Lord Shiva - Fire & Ice

a symbolism of all that represents lord shiva..HE is fire, HE is Ice, HE is Darkness , HE is Light HE garlands the Snakes, with the Tripun mark and the Third eye teaches that everything is one.. HE is the ultimate spiritual guru who preaches simplicity, equality, humility, forgiveness, love ...n d list is never ending..  

   At HIS finger tip

Whether its the Sudarshan Chakra for protection, or the universe chakra for creation, all is in the control of HIS finger tip.

  Tribute to MJ

This ink work is a small tribute to a great performer who won millions of hearts with is extraordinary dance moves, amazing music videos and super-like singing.

The Divine Duo

Radha Krishna…the divine pair in an abstract form, the blue trianguloid form with the peacock quilt n flute symbolizes lord krishna n the delicate  pink form with a nose ring represents Radhaji. No brushes were were used to paint this work, done with various blades, knifes, nail heads etc…its fun experimenting with new materials. It’s a small tribute to my immense love, respect and faith in this “Divine Duo”…n there r many more to come…

Vision

I’ve tried to bring together things related to vision…eyes, light- as initiated from a match and then onto candle flames…n finally colours in around that break the dark backgrounds monotony…but finally it’s our mind’s interpretation that actually converts what we “see” into our “vision”

The Quest

It’s the never ending quest, craving, desire for more that is the root of all evil…but if positively directed leads to progress…quest for knowledge…knowing more, learning more, growing more…if one becomes satisfied with what one has, then growth is stagnated…the fish here, in spite of living in water jumps out to reach to the dew drop from the leaf to quench its quest for more…

The Look

God has gifted us with innumerable gifts…one of the most special ones being “eyes” (n if they are colored, oh what a bonus)… to appreciate n enjoy the beauty HE has created around us…more importantly within each of us.Its rightly said that the most beautiful things in this world are best seen, best felt with eyes closed… Eyes speak the language of the soul making words a wasted facility to communicate.
