1. Enjoy some of the artist's Gallery on canvas
She shows us and teaches us a different approach from our Western standards. As a mother, she outlines a positive vision of the world through her paintings. Mother nature, the environment, affects us all. And we can coexist in harmony.
As a sensitive woman, Haritha yearns to express the spirit of empowerment of women, their inner strength, and convey it by painting them with the naturalness and vigor of her primary colors with powerful images: central figures, women who are known to be necessary for others and for themselves.
Women who withstand, who become both very visible, and increasingly strong and courageous.

NOW, the paintings:
1. Radha and Krishna.
120 x 180
This couple represents love and Indian tradition at the same time.
Radha-Krishna are collectively known within Hinduism as the combined forms of feminine as well as the masculine realities of God.
Their love is beyond social restrictions.
2. Women's life
88 x 68
other paintings giving an array of depiction motives:
100 x 100
Andalucian influences:
The painting of a woman surrounded by ants is a depiction of Indian women's life. They are moulded in a way that makes them unable to react to injustice. Indian women are victims in every sense. They don't enjoy freedom to make personal choices and self expression.
3. Manas sarovar Lotus pond
120 x 120
Painting of two women enjoying themselves in a lotus pond. Influenced by a myth related to the imaginary glacier-fed pond Manas Sarovar in Himalaya. It is believed that goddesses come to this pond in moonlit nights. It is revered as a sacred place in four religions.
4 രാസലീല Rāsa-līlā (dancing with Krishna)

Ras lila is a sort of dance that is part of the traditional sacred love story of God Krishna as described in Hindu scriptures, where he dances with Radha and her cow shepherds. It roughly translates as "Dance of Divine Love". Also a famous film in Kerala (1975 )
5. Mermaid at Monsoon
100 x 160
Painting of the mermaid is her favourite one. It has connections to childhood memories in a village surrounded by water. During monsoon season, the Arabian sea violently roars to the ears and the back water enters the land. Nobody can be surprised if there are mermaids in the imaginary world of a child from such a place.
