Synopsis:
This colourful composition of Standing Green Tara was originally drawn and painted in two versions by Uday Charan Shrestha, and his brother Dinesh. This particular copy was more recently painted by Uday’s student, Madan Kiju, and then repainted again in a much finer manner by Uday himself. Unfortunately I brought the painting back before Uday had completed re-working some parts of the lower landscape. And the difference between Madan and Uday’s patience, skill and brushwork can be glimpsed in the depiction of the two leafy green bushes that appear below the snow peak and hills in the lower left landscape area.

Green Tara or Arya Tara is the goddess of mercy and compassion, and Uday has captured all her sublime qualities in his exquisite portrayal of her beautiful face and bodily form. In tribhanga or ‘triple-bend’ posture Tara stands gracefully upon the silver moon disc of her pink lotus pedestal. She is youthful like a sixteen-year-old and emerald green in complexion, with a sweetly smiling face, two gentle bow-shaped eyes, delicate hands and feet, a narrow waist, and two fully rounded breasts with their nipples aroused. A golden dot or tilaka adorns her forehead, she has three gracefully curving folds on her neck and two folds beneath her breasts. The strands of her long black hair are twisted into braids, with half of the braids bound into a large topknot on the crown of her head, and the other half hanging freely about her shoulders.
