Sea Shore Temple by Sudha Palani

Features

ARTIST NOTES: I made this art on the memory of Indian architectural talent. One of the oldest shore temples in South India built by the Pallava King Rajasimha in the early 7th century. The folklore( traditional beliefs, customs, and stories of a community) states existence of 7 temples on the shore line in India. Presently, there is only one temple is available on the shore and is popular as the Shore Temple. The artisan Rajasimha constructed the temple during the 7th century, under the reign of Narasimha Varman II. This ancient South Indian temple is constructed according to the Dravidian style of architecture.Shore temple is recognized as the first stone structure built by the Pallavas. Prior to this, the monuments were carved out of stones or rocks.

ARTIST BIO Hi, Thanks for spending time to view my profile. I am Sudha Palani, Self-taught Artist. I love nature, Science and Art. Painting is everything for me. I feel the satisfaction that comes from what I love to do. My Mom, she is my Inspiration. I love her painting skills. I love to make pencil portraits, Animals, especially birds, and figurative art and things that I admire. Now I have started painting birds in more details. Painting eyes, beaks, feathers, and wings, it gives me a lot of excitement. I will feel complete satisfaction whenever I finish my bird painting. As an Artist, I could realize my self-confidence and do what I love. It helps to express my thoughts, emotions, personal experiences, and interest.  For me, painting is an endless search, and an ongoing learning process. I would like to refer to books to learn techniques. Each painting gives me some ideas. I learned things through my paintings. I want to explore with different mediums, techniques, and ideas. Nature is my favorite inspiration. I use professional quality acrylic paints for painting birds. It dries very quickly so that it is easy to make lots of detailed layers over and over to get a feathery look. I feel like doing meditation when I paint repeated details in the feathers. I feel happiness and positive vibe comes from focusing on what excites me. View works by Sudha Palani in Knox Art Show
