“In the Waves of Love”

120×85 cm – Oil on canvas – 2019

The painting “In the Waves of Love” is inspired by my japa in Radhakunda. The meditation I had on the Divine Couple spending time together in Radhakunda and Shyamakunda. Behind Them are two manjaris, hiding nearby the lotuses, always ready to be of assistance to Radha and Krishna.

It was a very sweet revelation once near my dear Guru Maharaja, H.H. Jayapataka Swami, that the manjaris are hiding in the water, near Radha Krishna.

21×29.7 cm – Watercolor and ink – 2020

Caitanya Mahaprabhu is the embodiment of Pure Love, the perfect and harmonious blend of the Divine Couple. The inspiration for this painting was through the readings of His pastimes. The search for different visual resources is also added to make this interpretation of the golden avatar more attractive.
