Lord of Sacred Fire - Ganesh

In this electrifying and deeply symbolic work, Marilyn portrays Lord Ganesh as a divine embodiment of transformation — the eternal remover of obstacles and guardian of spiritual rebirth. Enveloped in a halo of living flame, Ganesh sits poised upon a lotus throne, representing the awakening of consciousness through the purifying fire of devotion.

Rendered in shades of sapphire, violet, and gold, this painting merges the elemental with the celestial. The flames surrounding Ganesh pulse with creative force, symbolizing the burning away of illusion and the illumination of inner truth. The precision of Marilyn’s brushwork, paired with jewel accents and vibrant textures, gives the piece a sense of movement — as if the god himself is breathing energy into the space.

Ganesh — Lord of Sacred Fire invites the viewer into a state of surrender and renewal. It is both fierce and tender — a reminder that divine grace often comes through the fires that shape us, leaving only wisdom, beauty, and light behind.
