Painting Lord Ganesh (sold)

[Carnuss]

I can't believe it only took you three hours to paint that, it'd take me days to paint that and it wouldn't even look as good lol, good job.

[AnnikaGarratt]

@nymphadora42 I sold it for £45, which was really on the very cheap side but I'm just glad it's gone to a good home and someone so wonderful :)

[nymphadora42]

@AnnikaGarratt hmm, its was probably worth more than £45 but atleast its going to a good home. :) xxxxxx

@AutumnEnergy1 Thank you very much :) xxx

[beccawitch]

This is amazing! I wish I could draw or paint like this!  There are so many images that I have in my head that I would like to draw out and paint but they dont turn out the way I see. You have so much talent and its such a gift. Thank you for sharing this with us!

[AnnikaGarratt]

@beccawitch The thing I try to do is not have a preconceived notion of what exactly it will look like, and let it evolve into what it wants to be, that way there is no disappointment when it turns out differently. :)

[ThePeaceableKingdom]

Very nice. I love his expression, and the 3/4 pose of the head. Also love the colors you chose. Nice work!

[AnnikaGarratt]

@ThePeaceableKingdom Thank you :)

[ScarletRiley]

yeah, it totally does.

[TheVioletKat]

A very vivid and uplifting image...I love these "evolution of a painting" videos. Just beautiful and I appreciate how you talked about some of the symbolism for those of us who don't know very much about Ganesh in the first place. :)

[AnnikaGarratt]

@TheVioletKat Thank you, so glad you enjoyed :)

[AnnikaGarratt]

@OnyxMarigold Thank you :)

[ScarletRiley]

Awesome! such a good job! I have one piece of constructive criticism and that's the background, imo you could have made it nicer. also your hair looks really cool.

[AnnikaGarratt]

@ScarletRiley Thank you :) I think I like the contrast, it reminds me of falling blossoms.

[IndigoSummerRain]

Love it! Beautiful.

[MIRTHandREVERENCE]

I am very partial to Lord Ganesh as he is Parvati's son and she is one of my matrons. I think this is my favorite of all your work you have shared :) ~Anni~
