2 comments about Form of Beauty : The Krishna Art of B.G. Sharma (Art of Devotion Series Art of Devotion Series).
- Words don't do the artist justice here, though the lovely sacred verses and captions by Swami Tripurari frame the art work in its proper religious context. Simply stated, it must be seen. It's rare indeed to discover an artist or writer who helps you understand the glory of God and his miraculous gifts. This is one such example. A consummate masterpiece.
- I have recently purchased this book and I continue to carefully turn its pages and soak in the vivid and detailed work of B.G. Sharma's depiction of the story of Krishna. This is a book for anyone who loves the stories of Krishna whether the reasons are devotional or mythological. It is also for anyone who appreciates the traditional Hindu paintings that have long illustrated the ancient sacred Hindu writings. However, besides the life, color, and detail Sharma's brush gives these stories and characters, there is quality in the work that enlivens these intriguing and ancient episodes in the life of the blue god and draws me even deeper into them. No one captures the boyish charm of young Krishna or the love between Krishna and Radha like Sharma. For those who are not familiar with the stories, there is enough text to give meaning but the heart of this book is in the paintings.
