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.

Pairs



Pairs:I mean it in dual context; the dancing boy n girl pair; n the pair of black with another colour. Each of these four works displays my liking for dance and the colour black which when with proper partners looks lovable. Black is beautiful n its co-colour magnifies its beauty,n dancing is wonderful-even more so with ones choicest partner.

Red Passion

Black n red here shows passion, with candles creating a romantic aura for the couple dancing in the spotlight. Texture is created with knives n blades give it a rugged,aggressive n energetic look.

Lovely Lavender

A dancing couple trying to reach higher, above the petty dirtiness down below, with music inspiring and aiding them to go up. Black coupled with lavender gives a very cool n pleasant feel.

Warm Gold

The golden couple in a gracefully warm posture, throwing its reflection in the water. Black n gold make a great pair too. The bordered décor completes the warm lovable sentiment held while looking at it.



Adorable Green

Close dancing near the doorway n oh I love the “rose held by the mouth” gimmick. Black n green duo r here to do textured wonders. The dust obtained after trimming the board on which this work is done is used to texture the dancing silhouette.



Landscapes

Scenery

A calm lake side evening hour. The birds gracefully in flight and the dark rocks feature out gracefully. Therz an interesting play of light in the skyline. 

Waterfall

I adore water in all forms…be it rain, snow, ice-cubes, steam, fog/mist, dew drops, rivers, lakes, ocean, waves n list goes on. Water flowing down from a height, then a still water strap followed by water flowing through the rocky terrain, over the stones and finally merging with the flowing river is amazing.

Female Power

Colours

The soft delicacy of the rose petals across ones face is best felt with eyes closed. Its best to ignore the thorns, though acknowledging their presence- as it is with most examples we encounter in life; with both soft n thorny counters… the beauty of the feel is expressed with a coloured facial frontal against its same in black n white….

Introspection

It’s a state of mind in which v r in a rendezvous with r own self, to sit back n know oneself, ours needs, our deeds, their repercussions on others, to know where do we stand in life, n where is it that v r headed, it is where v want to head, grade ur own self not others…n lots more... “Introspection” a whole new world within…



 

Enticing

The colour red n women are the two things one can easily associate with attraction n here a woman in red can surely entice n hold gaze. My favorite is the delicacy of the face and the net-like texture of the fabric on the woman.

Waiting

More than half of one’s life goes waiting for something… it’s the worst inescapable phase. Wait for something- love, success, prosperity, happiness… with the light of hope to see it coming even in the darkest hour… n even with companions around u r almost always alone in ur “wait”.

Virtue Vs. Vice

When we look at a person (that explains the binocular vision cut), that person has both positive and negative aspects...both angelic and demonic sides. Here I’ve tried to show that we must weight on the virtues of that person n give less importance to the vices, which will help bring out the best in everyone n help good win over evil.

A Wish

Most commonly associated to “make a wish” is a shooting star..Nobody knows if the myth is really true but we all...do like to take a chance n make a wish…with time running out for so many of our wishes to come true, a hope somewhere in the heart that it might get fulfilled stays –so somewhere far on the sea-shore is a little lighted lantern of hope.

Cute n Shy

These are the two words that come to my mind when I look at this oil. The big shapely eyes try to peep shyly across the tree trunk with cute smiling lips. It’s a very bright, fresh and colorful vision.
