John Keay says that the Kama Sutra is a compendium that was collected into its present form in the 2nd century CE.
I am glad to say that this painting was chosen for display at Americal Art Association in Dec 2010.
Life necessitates three kinds of activity: to assure its survival, its means of existence, and its nourishment; to realise its reproduction according to forms of activity generally connected with sexuality; and, lastly, to establish rules of behaviour that allow different individuals to perform their roles within the framework of the species. In human society, this is represented as three necessities, three aims of life: material goods (artha) assure survival; erotic practice (kama) assures the transmission of life; and rules of behaviour, a moral nature (dharma), assure the cohesion and duration of the species. (The Complete Kamasutra, translated by Alain Danielou, 1994)
So with religion, morality (dharma) and material success (artha), kama is the third goal of human life. Kama is further defined as;
Kama is the enjoyment of appropriate objects by the five senses of hearing, feeling, seeing, tasting and smelling, assisted by the mind together with the soul. The ingredient in this is a peculiar contact between the organ of sense and its object, and the consciousness of pleasure which arises from that contact is called Kama.

Developing ideas and not just considering the medium as the ideas are expressed are the keys to my paintings.
I create images that I find pleasing and convey the idea behind the title phrase. I provide an environment for thought - a playground for the mind.
I invite the viewer to interact with the images and develop his or her own meanings from them. My advice to you when viewing my work is as follows?
Use your imagination!
Have fun!
