Wow, good call! How did you know that was Ganga? She's fairly obscure I think, and hard to find in statue form. She is also Akilandeshvara, the Goddess of Never-Not-Broken....strength in brokenness, sitting on a twirling alligator in the ever-changing sea of life. I keep meaning to do a blog post on her. There's a great story on Elephant Journal about Akilandeshvari.
Smuvs told me about Kintsukuroi, which is fascinating and beautiful and in a similar vein. Beauty and art in brokenness. My next tat is gonna be something along those lines.
Hubby is a good man. He used to own his own construction company, and does beautiful work. Someday, when the coops are finished--and properly landscaped--I'll post some pictures!
Love to ya.
