The beautiful Kalamkari painting depicts the Lord Shiva in His tandava mode of dancing. The dance performed by Lord Shiva is known as Tandava. It is a vigorous dance that is the source of the cycle of creation, preservation and dissolution. Tandava depicts his violent nature as the destroyer of the universe.Characteristics of the Tandava Dance have been described in the fourth chapter of Bharat Muni’s Nata Shastra, which is referred to as fifth Veda and an ex-pression of Lord Shiva’s eternal dance - Tandava. It says that Shiva’s Tandava is embellished with 108 karanas and the 32 anghaharas - the composite parts of the dance. Bharat Muni further says that Lord Shiva conceived the dance, as he was very much fond of dancing every evening. Shiva further mentioned that 108 karnas included in tandava could be employed in the course of dance, fight, and personal combats and in other special movements like strolling. Shiva’s tandava dance symbolizes the cosmic cycles of creation and destruction, as well as the daily rhythm of birth and death. The dance is a pictorial allegory of the five principle manifestations of eternal energy - creation, destruction, preservation, salvation, and illusion.

The wooden panel of Lord Shiva protecting Markandeya from the clutches of Yama is given a vivid depiction. Markandeya is an ancient rishi (sage), who was a devotee of both Shiva and Vishnu. The beautiful wooden panel depicts the battle between Lord Shiva and Yamraj. It shows the Yamraj springing his noose around the young sage's neck
There is an interesting story about how Lord Shiva protected Markandeya from the clutches of Yamraj. Mrikandu Munivar and his wife Marudmati worshipped Shiva and sought from him the boon of begetting a son. As a result he was given the choice of either a gifted son, but with a short life on earth or a child of low intelligence but with a long life. Mrikandu Munivar chose the former, and was blessed with Markandeya, an exemplary son, destined to die at the age of 16.
Markandeya grew up to be a great devotee of Shiva and on the day of his destined death he continued his worship of Shiva in his form of Shivalingam. The messengers of Yama, the God of Death were unable to take away his life because of his great devotion and continual worship of Shiva. Yama then came himself in person to take Markandeya's life away and sprung his noose around the young sage's neck. By accident of fate the noose mistakenly landed around the Shivalingam, and out of it, Shiva emerged in all his fury attacking Yama for his act of aggression. After defeating Yama in battle to the point of death, Shiva then revived him, under the condition that the devout youth would live forever. For this act, Shiva was thereafter known also as Kaalakalaya, meaning one who brought death, to death himself.

Description

Ability is an important tool in life. Ability without commitment and awareness is like a vehicle without the engine. The Shiva Sutra enhances one's awareness in a way one sees an opportunity in a difficulty and not a difficulty in an opportunity. There is an 'outside reality' and an 'inside reality' of one's mind. There is also another dimension called 'spiritual reality'. To harmonize all of them is a great awakening. Ordinary being loves one's own 'psycho dramas' of justification, proving one's point of view, blaming, being helpless and this leads one to a state of inner poverty. To free oneself from these lower states of poverty and see them as 'errors in one's thinking' is part of being effective and experiencing inner prosperity. The profound teaching of Lord Shiva introduces us to a bigger container where one learns to be charitable to one's own self. This practice of making a bigger container is essentially spiritual. Dive deep into these mystic teachings. - Swami Sukhabodhananda.

The beautiful image of Vishdhar Shiva in His iconic form is being given a detail treatment and the figure has been painted in a nice manner. The Shiva linga is being shown covered with the sheshnag. A symbol of recreation is painted beautifully. The method of waxing and then dewaxing has given rise to a special effect in the painting.

Sized 72"x45", this wall painting depicts Lord Shiva’s marriage with Parvati. Extensive use of motifs from the Indian mythology is a special feature of the Kalamkari painting centred on Andhra Pradesh. The astute painter has minutely depicted the sharp contrast of various gods and goddesses. The gods and goddesses have been shown wishing the Lord Shiva and his consort, as the duo are all set to put garlands on each other’s neck. Indeed a masterpiece by the painter!

If the Batik paintings are unique and beautiful in their own terms, the Shiva and Nandi painting is sui generis reflecting all the basic characteristics of this genre of painting. The strong patterns of colour and the strong portrayal of lines have made the painting a buyers’ choice. The God and his vehicle have been painted using vibrant pink and grey colours. A batik artist needs to have a good sense of colors and patterns. Though the motifs used in batik are simple, knowledge of color gradations and tack to remove wax finely are required. Applying the wax resist and systematic cracking are the key to a beautiful art piece. Cracking of wax on the lighter hues and seeping in of the darker colours though them creates the characteristic batik effect.
