'Sun God'
A wreath of golden rays surrounds the glorious sun god, creator of life. His impressive face is embellished with traditional stylizations that attest to his standing as a divine being. The innovative artistry of Prakash begins with a copper sheet, which he embosses with the desired motif. He then hand-paints over the composition with bright colors and applies it to a mango wood surface. This copper painting makes an original decorative accent.
