The Joy of Bihu

This captivating painting portrays Lord Shiva in a dynamic, mid-air pose, embodying his role as the cosmic dancer and destroyer. Rendered in shades of blue and purple against a swirling, cloud-like background, Shiva is depicted with flowing black hair, a serene yet powerful expression, and a blue complexion symbolizing his divine nature. He holds a trident (trishula) in one hand and a small drum (damaru) in the other, iconic symbols of his cosmic rhythm and destruction. Clad in a tiger-skin skirt and adorned with a simple necklace, Shiva’s pose exudes energy and tranquility, set against a deep blue sky with swirling clouds that suggest his transcendence over the material world.

Silence is the best weapon.
