Oh! to be the rock He sits on!!




















I worked on this charcoal sketch (left) of Krishna for Murali - under pressure.. in a day! I sketched 3 other Krishnas in various other poses but chose this one to complete for him. Something about the peacock in the background was captivating and the feathers framed the Lord! The original that inspired me is quite different with Krishna sitting with a stick and multiple peacocks around him. I added the deer and the flute to add some other interest. The Krishna on the right is one of the others which is now complete with Radha resting on His shoulder.

It is such a blessing to be the flute, or the deer, or atleast the peacock, or the flowers at His feet or even the rock he is perched on!! Oh to be one of them!!
