Krishna is worn by his devotees as the flute-playing cowherd of Vrindavan, as the child who stole butter and as the teacher of the Gita. These nine show Krishna with his flute and a cow, the child Krishna with a pot of butter, and his face in profile under a peacock feather. Each comes in watercolor, black and grey realism or fine line. Type a twist, such as blue skin, and the styles carry the request.

Frequently asked questions

What is in the nine designs?
Krishna playing the flute beside a cow, the child Krishna with butter, and Krishna's profile under a peacock feather. Each is drawn in three styles.
Can I print these?
Each design sits on a plain white background, so the black line work reads clearly on paper; the watercolor version uses soft colour washes on white.
What is the difference between the three styles?
Watercolor is black line art with soft saffron, blue and pink washes that run past the outlines. Black and grey realism uses smooth stippled shading. Fine line is one hairline stroke with almost no shading.
Can I ask for a different subject?
Yes. Type the subject or twist you want, such as blue skin. The nine shown are samples, and a request is not a promised result.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
