Watercolor, 500 lb cold press Arches paper. The Sun Temple, built in the 13th century, is one of many sacred Hindu temple sites in the state of Odisha. Dedicated to the sun god Surya, the Sun Temple is noted for its large number of intricate carvings on the temple's stone façade, and for the chariot wheels represented around the temple exteriors--which are sundials that can be used to calculate time accurately to within one minute. It remains a significant pilgrimage site. This painting is intended to illustrate a grandfather-granddaughter visit together to this holy location.
