Saraswati Devi

This is the 2nd painting in the series of 17 paintings I am doing for a client.

I feel blessed to have this opportunity to create the Gods. The image of Saraswati Devi was indeed a bliss to work with. It always had to be a white Saree with a beautiful red border. Also I knew that the centre of attraction for the image would be the Veena, the musical instrument that Sharada Devi has in her hands.

Again, a word about the background. I am again happy that all the things I have added to the background have merged so well.

The Goddess of knowledge and art has indeed helped me in doing this image.

This is my latest creation.

This has been done for a client who wants to publish a book on Bhaktiyoga. The client wanted an image of Gopala. Gopala is that version of Krishna who grazed cows. I had plans of sketching the painting and then compsing it in Photoshop, but could not do so because of the tight deadlines.

I am happy about the way I have been able to compose the background tree.

It has been mostly brushes, filters and a lot of other tools.
