This modern portrayal of Ganesh is abundant with polished, smooth, curved lines. It lacks the typical details of Ganesh like jewelry and facial features. It lets the polished smooth surfaces of the stone do the speaking for the sculpture. The stone is an expensive and beautiful stone from Andra Pradesh, India named Vizag Blue. It has pink, blue and gray veins in it that just explode with color when polished. The unpolished portions of the statue contrast beautifully with the bright polished sheen. Ganesh sits on a separate base with and elephant head carved into the front.
Ganesh does not have any eyes which is perfect for Hindus who do not want to perform daily puja for the statue. Ganesh is perfectly acceptable to be in the garden as well.

~A Hymn from Sri Bhagavat-Tathva~
The chubby, gentle, wise, elephant-headed Ganesh, or Ganesha, is one of Hinduisms most popular deities. He is the remover of obstacles, the deity whom worshippers first acknowledge when they visit a temple. He is also patron of letters and of learning; he is the legendary scribe who, using his broken tusk, which he often holds, wrote down parts of the Mahabharata epic. Ganesh is usually depicted colored red; he is pot bellied, has one tusk broken, and has four arms that may hold a pasam, a goad, and a pot of rice or sweetmeats. The sweet meats are held in a type of bowl known as a laddus. His appetite for these sweets is legendary and offerings of them are often left at his shrine.
Statues of Ganesh can be found in most Indian towns. His image is placed where new houses are to be built; he is honored at the start of a journey or business venture, and poets traditionally invoke him at the start of a book.
A pasam is a triple twine weapon. Each of the three twines represents, arrogance and conceit, Maya - the illusory nature of the real world, ignorance. In Hindu ideology weapons are a viewed as symbolic tools to destroy the ego rather than to cause any type of bloodshed. Goads (or elephant prods) are typically used to direct elephants. Goads are symbolic of how one should steer the soul away from the ignorance and illusions of this earthly world just as a mahout would steer an elephant away from any treacherous path.
