Some of your poses as Hindu Goddesses are mesmerising! Hindu art often focusses on 'mudras' to express 'bhav'(tone, mode, mood). It would be great to see you pose particularly as
1. Saraswati(knowledge)- symbolised by infinite peace, grace, music, compassion and bliss. These are all the feelings one gets from acquiring knowledge.
2. Lakshmi(wealth)- symbolised by beauty, physical appeal, and restlessness. These are all the characteristics of real wealth. It runs away from those that aggresively pursue(Indra), only to rest with those with inner peace(Vishnu)
3. Uma/Parvati(Kinetic Energy)- symbolised by boldness, assertion, raw physical beauty and appeal. In real world terms, kinetic energy activates restful objects, or Shiva)
Without these goddesses, the gods cannot be animated. They remain dormant, inactive. The sum total of these energies is Maya, which activates the sum total 'Brahman' from its inactivity. The romance of the two is 'leela', which we see as daily occurrences as events, weather, nature, universe and universes.
It would be great to see you depict these using the appropriate Mudras, from BharatNatyam, Kathak, or Orrissi. The result would be intense and deeply expressive
Keep up the good work.
