The Natyashastra by Bharata Muni, a text which is in the essence of all Indian art forms puts in words the beauty of the heroine decked up for her romantic union, Vaasaksajja Nayika as- “uchite vaasake ya tu rati sambhoga lalasaa, mandanam kurute hrishta saa vai Vaasakasajjitaa” (24:212). Vaasakasajjitaa or Vaasakajja Nayika is the youthful maiden who bedecks her form with bejeweled ornaments and eagerly awaits the moment of her union with a blissful heart. This grace and delicateness of a woman in love have been the favorite of artists since the olden days, who have used the emotions and beauty of the Vasakasajja Nayika to enliven their art. In this acrylic on canvas Nayika painting, a gleaming beauty with jewels and colors enhancing her allure recreates the magic of Vasakasajja.

With bold use of blue, yellow, white, orange, and red the artist has painted the backdrop for the mystical Nayika who stands holding flowers as delicate as herself in her hand. Her hair long and dark is flowing, ornamented by a golden Mathapatti (hair ornament), earrings, Bindi (red dot on the forehead), nose pin, necklace, bangles, and armbands. A luxurious orange churni enwraps her milky white torso emphasizing Nayika’s divine natural beauty. Her face is slightly elongated with sharp facial features, her eyes are large, her nose fine, and her lips are full and gentle as rose petals. The schemed posturing of Nayika’s body and the definition of her expressions create the impression that she has just entered the canvas and her dreamy eyes fell on the painter who saw an opportunity to crystalize the moment in this mesmeric acrylic painting.
