Vinayagar Chathurthi

Today, i got some sketch pens of Faber Castle brand in BDA Complex . I checked for the paint box , but it was not available. I came up with a small greeting card for 'Vinayagar Chathurthi'.

This was also drawn directly in one shot using the sketch pens without doing any kind of initial pencil drawing :-). I felt very much exited & enjoyed drawing this.

Vinayagar chathurthi is a famous Hindu festival in India. It is the Birthday of Lord Ganesha(Elephant headed God). He is worshipped first before any form of God . Whenever you enter a temple, you will find Lord Ganesha to be the first God before any other God/Godesses. It is celebrated very grandly in Maharashtra. People throughout India make lot of sweets. It is good business time. Some will buy/make big idols and immerse in the river/sea to represent the cycle of creation & dissolution in nature.

People worship him before beginning any activity.

Interestingly, i have started the activity of Drawing with his Greeting card without my own actual intention . Sometimes, God will sit in your tongue/mind and somehow he has been in my mind that i have started this activity with Lord Vinayaga without my actual intention :-) Thankyou Lord .

Happy Vinayagar Chathurthi !
