Konkan Glory

Konkan..... The Coastal region of Western Maharashtra, India.
This is one of my favorite regions, both for a road trip as well as for painting. One region where you might find beauty wherever you turn your head. Konkan boasts magnificent beaches, beautiful temples and simple people with smiling faces.

The Backwaters

Here I tried to capture the peace and tranquillity of the Backwaters of Kerala, India.

Modi Ganpati

Before beginning anything - being blessed by Ganpati or Ganesh - the God of Knowledge is mandatory in the Hindu culture. I therefore chose to paint a picture of Lord Ganesh Idol from the Modi Ganpati Mandir, Pune, India. This stone idol was found as it is - except the saffron color.
The trunk is on the right side, which makes the Idol more important and therefore rigorous daily routine is followed in the temple by the priest.
Don't forget to visit the temple when you are in Pune.
Modi Ganpati Mandir, Narayan Peth. Pune.
