Ekdanta one of many names of Ganesha, which literally means single tooth. There are many versions in mythology revolving around the same. According to one of the stories, Lord Ganesha used one of his tusks as a pen to write down the epic of Mahabharata when He acted as a scribe for Ved Vyasa. The broken tusk of the Lord signifies that he will sacrifice anything to grant the wishes of his devotees! The mythological stories have a different kind of beauty surrounding them. The way we hear it; sitting on the lap of our grandparents in a lazy summer afternoon, letting our imaginations fly. No matter what version we hear, it is an essential part of 'Us' growing up. It is how our Dadi and Nani imparts ethics and culture in our sponge like child mind.

This is one of the 9 totem poles in Stanley Park in British Columbia, Canada.Stanley Park is in Vancouver which is considered as the most scenic and beautiful part of British Columbia state.The collection of totem poles in Stanley Park started in the 1920s when the Vancouver Parks Board started buying them thinking that they would eventually build a replica First Nations village in Stanley Park. Some of these original totem poles were carved as early as the 1880s.The Totem was the British Columbia Indians's coat of arms. Totem poles are unique to the north west coast of B.C. and lower Alaska. They were carved from western red cedar and each carving tells of a real or mythical event. They were not idols nor were the worshipped. Each carving on each pole has a meaning. The eagle represents the kingdom of the air. The whale the lordship of the sea. The wolf, the genius of the land, and the frog, the transitional link between land and sea.

Ever felt that sudden quiver of understanding which travels from our brain to the heart? That's what happened to me when I first beheld "Parinda." Until then, artworks were an alien concept for me. And then, it was like a savage leap of comprehension - an immediate, joyful release of meaning - that I had never felt before. Within those strokes was a reflection of our modern selves - a mix of chaos, harmony, and that peculiar longing for freedom, often felt but seldom expressed.
I just knew that I had to have it.

It was the 25th wedding anniversary of my parents and I was desperately looking for the best gift I could give them which would last forever. It was around the same time I had seen one of Shweta's commissioned charcoal portraits on Instagram and I immediately knew I had found the perfect gift. Everything was a smooth ride from there on and the portrait now adorns our wall and is loved by all our family and friends. Thank you Shweta once again for all your efforts and love.

I have had the pleasure of collaborating with "platform-independent visual artist" – Shweta Ektare – more than a couple of times. And I am amazed at the degree of artistic maturity she demonstrates.

Abstract with acrylic on canvas is her favorite, but she is equally skilled and creative on a variety of artistic playgrounds. She can carve an intricate design on the sands of a beach, or create a masterpiece by orchestrating a range of mediums such as charcoal, pencil, microtip, poster colors, watercolors, crayons, acrylic, oil, resins or any other medium.

She is thoroughly professional and is passionate about creating purely original artwork. She is swift. She understands client requirements to a T and adds her Midas touch to every work she undertakes. I own four of her amazing artworks and can confidently say that her paintings have depth. Her art has multiple dimensions to it. It's like looking through a kaleidoscope. She finds inspiration in every detail of life. Be it poetry, or music, or a critical decision-making point in life, people and their stories, fireflies, petrichor, an ocean, a fairy tale, a dream, anything, and everything. She has an astounding ability to create a visual for something as abstract and yet as real as an emotion.

Her paintings talk, they make us think, and they become a part of us. She is ever-exploring of new ideas and newer ways to present them in her own unique style.

I wish her all the success and glory and fascinating revelations on her journey as an artist
