Art by Anirudh Sainath

This blog post — 30 illustrations of Indian gods that will blow away your mind — provides an overview of the work of Anirudh Sainath, who is from Delhi, India. Unlike the traditional iconography of the Indian gods, these gods look like comic book or video game superheroes. Below are my 5 favorites; see the blog post for more, and you can see his Gallery at Deviant Art also. There is an interview with the artist here: Digital Meets Culture – Interview with Anirudh Sainath.
