This diptych portrays the Shivalingam tree with its divine brightly coloured flowers. These flowers with its unique design have always fascinated me and I wanted to capture the beauty of this unusual tree in all its splendour. The canvas is very textured and is full of light , colours and joy.

Painting inspired by a 10th century Chola bronze belonging to Svetaranyeswara temple. Sculpture gifted to the temple by Raja Raja Chola. Current location of original bronze – Tanjore Palace Museum. A humble attempt to bring awareness to our Heritage.
