Colorful Expressionist Painting of Lord Ganesha from India, "Calm Ganesha"

Working in an expressionist style that evokes Indian folk art, Sunil Jaiswal paints this scene with a mix of watercolor, acrylic, and ink on handmade paper. In vibrant colors with intricate motifs, the elephant-headed Hindu god Ganesha is depicted in a calm posture along side his "vehicle," a mouse. The artist imagines Ganesha in a playful mood.
