COPYRIGHT 2009 PHILIP SALAS. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED BY THE ARTIST....This piece was recently commissioned by a client, and was a great honer for me to try and depict. He is Narasimha, a half -lion half -man representation of divine anger, and one of Hinduisms most popular deities. According to Vaishnava Theology , he is a great "protector" and indicates God's omnipresence amongst all things. I took me about 2 weeks to finish the final comp, because of the powerful subject mater.... and It was fun spiritual ride, for it sparked deep feelings of inner peace and anger within me while blocking him out. I finally tamed the composition down with a cooler pallet and peaceful relaxed Yogic posture .... " O kamasikha Narasimha!
