AUM
I painted my first AUM few months back, Since then I wanted to paint a better one which has a very clear AUM (pretty much like RSS - Rashtriya Swayam Sevak Sangh AUM) in a circular canvas.
IDEE has good collection of round canvas boards and picked this up which is 50cms in diameter and set off to paint something which I have always seen in posters :)
Vermilion & Orange made most of the outer edge of this painting and blended it with Yellow and some Titanium white, Background was ready.. Just to add some effects, stuck some streaks of cello tape and painted yellow on it, It indeed gave some good effect (which not seen much in a photo, rather seen clear when you see the painting as is)
My wife searched a good AUM from google images, drew that with pencil and used RED to paint it evenly, It wasnt easy as I generally do rubbing technique and not that comfortable with smooth finish by brush ! However.. came out well.. Whitish shadow was added later..

Very good friend of mine who was leaving for India from Germany wanted this, So gifted this painting to him and hopefully now it resides in a peaceful valley near Himalayas (somewhere near Kangda - Himachal Pradesh) He was very pleased to have it !! He wanted to put it in a yoga room.. Hope it gives some support to those who want to meditate and get some piece (peace) of mind :)
