Krishna and Radha are a perennial source of inspiration to artists. In this
painting on acrylic, a Rajasthani artist sketches a Krishna seated under a tree
while playing his flute. The melodious notes of the flute lure Radha, who on
her way to collect water from the river, is drawn irresistibly to listen to
the music of Krishna. Colored in the soft hues of gemstones crushed into a paint,
the divine lovers radiate a soft glow, framed in Italian wood with a golden
bevel edging the painting.
The colors radiate with the brilliance of gemstones, which are finely ground
almost to powder. A special resin is used to bind the powdered gemstones into
a paint. The artist first sketches the subject of his inspiration on a sheet
of acrylic. Then he fills the colors made from gemstones to create a painting
that emanates a soft yet rich glow.
