• ARTWORK BY ME •
Various religions within the realm of Sanatana Dharma (what the Western world collectively calls "Hinduism") view Tara as one of the many forms of the Mother Goddess, the Feminine aspect of the One, Divine Energy/Deity/Whatever'sOutThere. To those who follow one of the many forms of Buddha Dharma (especially among the Tibetan/Vajrayana schools of thought), Tara is a Bodhisattva, the embodiment of Compassion. In both Sanatana Dharma and Buddha Dharma, Tara helps the devotee to transform negativity into positive thought and action.
I intentionally wanted this artwork on the edge of the paper. For one thing, I am quirky that way. I also thought it would be unique, because everyone seems to center their drawings on the paper. Third, I am not really a true "artist," per se, and this way I wouldn't take a chance on messing up the other side of the face by not getting things evenly-matched. 😁
To begin the illustration, I outlined her form in pencil. Since I am drawing from the perspective of Sanatana Dharma, specifically Shakta, I added a multi-layered mukut (crown) on her head to represent Her supremacy and sovereignty.

Then I began to add the color within the outlines, using colored pencils, starting with the more pale colors...

Then came the darker colors and retracing the pencil lines with black ink...

Next came the outline of Her halo...

Next, I darkened the outline of the halo...

And finally, added the color to the halo and the mukut...

And, She is complete!
Here is a final animation, compiled by me, showing the process:

this is really good, you paint beautiful art and draw it on the side so that this picture looks more impressive ... this is extraordinary art.

Actually, I left it that way intentionally, to give Her an appearance as other than a mere human. 🙂

I love how you positioned her to the side, with so much space, for a goddess is more than her form, much more!
