Watercolor Painting On Paper of Hindu Sadhus

Sadhu is a religious ascetic, mendicant or any holy person in Hinduism and Jainism who has renounced the worldly life. It literally means one who practices a ″sadhana″ or keenly follows a path of spiritual discipline. In this painting, Navneet Parikh has worked his magic again as he paints the canvas in a warm tone depicting a desert like ground that has a fire burning in the front as the smoke and the flames combine to give it a yellow and orange hue. The background shows a lush green acacia tree which contrasts the baked stone monastery in the distance which sets up over the hill on the top right of the art. The sky is filled with smoke and clouds and is tinged a dusty yellow to give a picturesque scene with the amazing blend of colors that happens with the wide chromatic plethora.

This painting is enclosed in a double layered border one of which is very thin and is imprinted with golden floral designs as it is contrasted with a bright orange background. The outer border is also embossed with plant designs, but it is stamped with 6 young men and 1 old man, all of them wear jamas and holding books whilst they sit at a distance from each other. The painting itself shows five sadhus. One of them sleeps in the back with his arms over his head, wearing a yellow dhoti as he is accompanied by a ginger haired man who faces his porcelain white back in the direction of the spectators as his scarlet red silk lungi slips down his hips. The other three men have long waist length beards ranging from black to grey as one of them recite religious beads with his orange dhoti going below his hips. The one on the left wears a rose gold toga which envelops him as he sits beside another Sadhu who appears to be their Chief, wearing a dhoti along with an angavastram and a bright orange shawl.

This painting is of great importance not only in the history of the religion but even the art as it encapsulates the intricate details and designs of typical paintings which are a sign of the high and fine quality artistry making it your must buy choice as an ornament.
