Lord Ganesha is one of the most revered and popular deities in Hinduism. He is the elephant-headed god of wisdom, success, and good luck. He is also the remover of obstacles and the patron of arts and sciences1.

Ganesha paintings are a common form of artistic expression in India and other parts of the world where Hinduism is practiced. Ganesha paintings depict the various aspects and attributes of the god, such as his four arms, his vehicle (the mouse), his consort (Siddhi or Buddhi), and his symbols (the modak, the lotus, the axe, etc.)2.
