Koothan (Nataraja)

By Usha Kodeeswaran

Caption Of Artwork: KOOTHAN (Sanskrit: Nataraja) the Hindu God Shiva symbolizes “the connection between religion and art” and this form represents Shiva as the Lord of dance, encompassing all “creation, destruction and all things in between”.

I have always been an ardent devotee of Lord Shiva and consider it an immense pleasure to be painting the Lord. As an artist, I have wanted to paint metallic sculptures to learn the technique of bringing out the depth and lustre in them.
