Natarajasana, The Dance Pose in Madhubani Art. This Art is made on canvas with Acrylic paint.
Natarajasana (Sanskrit: नटराजासन, romanized: Naṭarājāsana), Lord of the Dance Pose or Dancer Pose is a standing, balancing, back-bending asana in modern yoga as exercise. It is derived from a pose in the classical Indian dance form Bharatnatyam, which is depicted in temple statues. Natarajasana pose encourages us to honor the sounds of the universe, to let go of our fear, to commit to growing and expanding. It is a reminder that we are always going to face obstacles in our day-to-day lives, but when you can find your grounding and maintain your balance, we are able to gracefully move through whatever comes your way. Next time you get into our modern version of Dancer Pose, remind yourself of your inner dancer and fearlessness. Remember the basics – just like Nataraja holds the sound of the universe in his hand. Every time you fall out of Natarajasana, invoke the lightheartedness of the Lord of the Dance, the music he carries with him, the flow of energy.
Madhubani Art (or Mithila painting) is a style of Indian painting, practiced in the Mithila region of the Indian subcontinent. Madhubani paintings are traditionally done with a variety of tools, including fingers, twigs, brushes, nib-pens, and matchsticks, and using natural dyes and pigments. It is characterized by its eye-catching geometrical patterns. Madhubani paintings mostly depict people and their association with nature and scenes and deities from the ancient epics.

Every canvas is gallery wrapped with the staples located on the back and they are wired and ready to hang. The canvas is 1.5 inches in depth which means you do not need a frame for displaying purposes. If you would like to see what this painting would look like on your wall you can send me a photograph of your living room, dining room, or every time you would like to hang the painting and I can do a mock-up for you. Just make sure that the photo has good light and is taken from a straight-on viewpoint.
