Banjaran


The beautiful dress and ethnic silver jewelleries of a banjaran had always fascinated me, so, I thought to give it a try. After referring hundreds of photographs and a month and a half, I came up with this canvas.

A marriage ceremony


Since my bad back's creating trouble and I'm unable to sit without support for long, my tribal girl's yet to be decked with her fineries. But, life without color's simply depressing and frustrating for me,so, I decided to go for something lighter and destressing...Warli art..basic of basics but expressive to its heights. A wooden frame and my leftover wall-paper are what I chose to paint on. The grainy surface of the paper gave a nice texture. Although the entire work was kind of childish, but I felt a wave of relaxation throughout.

Musings

Its been ages since I could complete a work. It seems God's pretty annoyed for reasons I'm not aware. Trying hard to cope with the situations, hope I come out like phoenix from the frustrating situations.

Buddha


The paintings of Ajanta had always fascinated me since my childhood. When I first visited the caves 4 years ago, it was a dream come true. I was mesmerized...the paintings with their detailed works and series of paintings depicting a particular story left me speechless. Of all the paintings,one had the image of Buddha in a different shade...dark and more human than divine...worried more than serene.

Perspective


A small canvas is rather difficult than a large one...I decided on this after much thinking. A bright surreal light is always magical as a background. I decided to paint a frame around as the board was an absolute non-appealing stuff.

Gyani Ganesh

I called this Gyani Ganesh as I drew huge ears and gave Ganpati a very matured look...hope its liked by others too.

Unison


Another acrylic on canvas which my kid students named 'Alien family'....amusing though. Thinking of keeping it as one of my exhibits.
