When I wanted to master drawing horses I actually hung around a horse breeding stable for weeks drawing them

Interesting. I recently was wandering around and found a new trail around my backyard.

It led me to this horse farm/stable and wow these creatures are huge, and amazing. In that moment i felt like painting them, and i need to take this opportunity.

Thank you for your words, which go farther than we think

(life is becoming more)

Thanks

Many portrayals of Ganesha have been as a jovial or 'plump' character. Whereas have known him as strong and even a warrior, hence that is how I drew him

Yes! I sense that strong warrior presence in him. Beautiful.

I have always resonated strength of the spirit, that is why even all the goddesses I have portrayed are strong and not 'sexy' in a lustful manner
