About Goddess Lakshmi: Embodiment of Grace
When you commission a Lakshmi painting, we start by understanding your space. Whether it is for a dedicated pooja room or a living area, the dimensions and lighting matter. We work with you to select the right iconographic form, be it the abundant Gajalakshmi or the graceful Dhana Lakshmi, and then begin the slow, deliberate process of gesso embossing and 24K gold foil application that defines our family’s style.
Bringing the Goddess Home
Lakshmi Devi is the essence of abundance, and creating her form requires a state of focus and devotion. In our Basavanagudi studio, we don't rush the process. We follow the traditional methods my mother taught me over 40 years ago, ensuring every painting is a lasting part of your family.
The Art of 24K Gold
Authentic Tanjore art is defined by the use of 24K gold foil. This is not just for decoration. Gold represents purity and divinity, and it captures light in a way that makes the deity appear to glow, especially in the warm flicker of a diya. We apply this foil over high-relief 'Sudha' work, which gives the painting its signature three-dimensional feel.
Customization and Placement
- Space Assessment: If you have a specific niche or pooja shelf, tell us the measurements. We can adjust the composition to ensure the deity looks perfect in your designated space.
- Iconography Choices: You might prefer the classic Gajalakshmi with the two elephants, or perhaps a seated Lakshmi showering gold coins. We guide you through the symbolism of each form to find what resonates with your intentions.
- Framing: We use traditional Chettinad teak wood frames. These are heavy and durable, designed to protect the intricate stone and gold work for decades.
Why Our Process Matters
Each painting carries a certificate of authenticity, guaranteeing the gold purity and the traditional construction. We want you to feel that the piece you bring home is not just a painting, but a vessel for peace and prosperity. If you are unsure about which form of Lakshmi suits your home, just send us a message. I would be happy to discuss the significance of different postures and help you find the right fit.
Tanjore Collective
My mother taught me this art 40 years ago, and today, it is my way of connecting with the divine. Every Lakshmi piece I paint is a continuation of our family tradition, meant to bring that same sense of peace and prosperity into your home.
