That's interesting. I didn't know it was originally a painting. If I ever get the opportunity I'd love to see it in person.

Namaste and yes, I hope you do. Taking a close look at the one you shared, while it is an exact match, I don't recall the colors being as brite as this, except the blue. This may be a very, very good copy of the original painting.
Honestly, some of the most beautiful paintings come from ISKCON.

thesr pictutres you can study for hours and see so many details and every thing is so perfect from the instruments being played to the offerings being served the clothes worn everything is culturaly correct
Namaste,
These paintings show an evolved consciousness. There is beauty and progressive knowledge [and vast creativity] in the dharmic (Brahmanical) mind.

and such beautifull y adoring gomata 's
Namaste,
I want to become a cowherd. And, spoil the female cows with love and adoration. And, worship them as well by conducting many yagyas for them and their well being.
I once saw a cow giving birth in Ranip, Gujarat when I was very little. The whole street was closed down and the police came blocking off the road as well. Priests were called in to officiate a ritual for the well being of the newly born calf. Even sweets were offered throughout the school. In Gujarat, it is very auspicious to witness the birth of a calf.
Gujarat = Lord Shri Krishna fanatics: proud and vehemently devoted! We 'da best y'all!

and so many images we know have been cipied fron the great artists like sharma who paint in a time honoured tradition you will even see his name copied with small alteration , and now iskcon have accepted these depictions and use them also
a good artist is like a guru he describes every small detail in its correct manner without adding or taking away whith out whim or fancy .

I know this is a picture of Lord Skanda - can you tell me abit more about this particular picture/incarnation?
Dandapani is the name, and it is Murugan in renunciate form. Therefore he is carrying the sannyasin's staff, is attired very simply, and looks more reclusive. He's also wearinf rudraksha and the adheenakartar pendant symbolising he's no ordinary renunciate, but the head of all renunciates. At Palani temple he takes this form as well as in many temples around the world. Since I know sannyasins personally and have tremendous admiration for them, Dandapani really appeals to me. For more info like the history I would recommend researching Palani Temple ot Palani Devasthanam..
