RADHA MADHAVAM - A KERALA MURAL

                  In the idyllic surrounding of the gardens of BRINDAVAN
                  
                 on the swirling banks of the River Yamuna,


                 watch Krishna ... and his beloved -RADHA....


                 lost in their own world ....


                 In this KERALA MURAL -  I have portrayed the 


                 Divine pair engulfed in love...


                 The  subtle use of the Pancha varnas -


                ( though I have not used the traditional vegetable dyes)


                ( I have stuck to the prescribed shades...)


                 add an ethinic touch to this painting which is also 


                 popularly known as JALAKREEDA...

                                       Done on hand made paper with acrylic or poster colors....

MY SYMBOLIC MURAL.....KRISHNA......

                                                     


                                       WHEN I THINK OF KRISHNA VARIOUS FORMS 
                                       AND HUES
                                       FLASH IN MY MIND'S EYE......


                                       THE REDDISH EARTH OF GOKULAM 
                                       WHERE HE LAUGHED AND PLAYED
                                       THE SWIRLING WAATERS OF YAMUNA
                                       THE GREEN BANKS WHERE        
                                       HE TENDED THE FLOCK
                                       THE LUCKY FEATHER WHICH 
                                       ADORNED HIS CROWN
                                       AND THE MAGICAL NOTES THAT WAFTED OUT
                                       OF HIS MAGICAL FLUTE....

                    and the result is this mural -shaped by hand 
                    with chalk and glue  and   oil colors ...
