Ganesha looks for everybody
Ganesha is one of the most important gods in Hindu mythology and he is also worshipped in Jainism and Buddhism. For the Ganapatya Hindu sect, Ganesha is the most important deity. Ganesha is highly recognisable with his elephant head and human body, representing the soul (atman) and the physical (maya) respectively. He is also the patron of writers, travellers, students, commerce, and new projects (for which he removes obstacles from one's path) and is rather fond of sweets, to the slight detriment of his figure.
I repro photographed this image out of a painting which was offered in a souvenir shop inside the Pura Taman Ayun Temple complex in Mengwi on Bali.
