Ganesha


Medium: Mix Media on Canvas

Ganesha...the elephant god as some people simply understand....Lord Ganesha is considered the lord of success and is worshiped as the god of education, wisdom, knowledge and wealth.

The curvy trunk which symbolizes "OM"...big round belly...the symbol of "Maya" (the material world) and the big elephant head...represents wisdom.

I love drawing Ganesha and the colors here...golden yellow with scarlet indian red along with olive green....with pastel brown and white in the background. Happy with how the final outcome turned out !
