Kerala Mural Painting - Ardhanaarishwarar

Hi All,

Here is my next painting  'Ardhanaarishwarar' of Kerala Mural painting style.
Ardhanaarishwarar is a form of  Shiva and his consort Shakthi....
This is a temple painting style found in Kerala...usually painted only using panchavarnas... i.e red, yellow, green, black an white... (primary colours and their shades)...
I was highly fascinated by this art and longing to try this kind of painting for a very long time... but being a beginner I was little reluctant considering the difficult minute works in this...

Though it consumed more time (days) for me to complete, i am completely satisfied with the final result... it is absolutely divine...
