Ghumar dance. Acrylic on canvas 36 x 24 inches. Ghumar is a folk-dance form of the Rajasthan state of India. The dancers usually dance to the songs and beats of the local instruments. Apart from the physical intensity of the dance which involves jaw-dropping, difficult body movements, the highlight is the costume and jewelry associated with this dance. Ghumar also holds a more special place in my heart because I am a native of Rajasthan. The dance is usually performed at night and I have tried to give it a nocturnal feel and a rural look by depicting the lights hanging from the trees in the form of a traditional lamp lit using oil and wick inside a glass bottle. For all the flashy costumes and jewelry, I have used actual sequins stuck with fabric glue.Hey there,
As you can see from my portfolio, I am an artist from India. As far as paintings are concerned, i usually paint subjects related to traditional Indian art or those related to nature and wildlife.
My art comprises all types of media- oil, acrylic l, clay, mixed media and glass colors, painted on paper or canvas. My passion for traditional Indian art and nature is what is reflected in my art and you can call these my muses as well. I started painting way back in 1989, but after a few works, there was a long gap due to career and professional commitments as also my increasing focus on wildlife photography, which i started in earnest in 2009, though i was learning the ropes since 2004.
Having completed a large part of my professional career now, has rekindled my love for art and i now endeavor to find time for painting as well as wildlife photography. My love for nature and wildlife have in fact provided me inspiration for paintings as well. I will also add some of my photographs to the portfolio shortly.
I hope you like my work and keep watching my profile for new works. I would love to hear your feedback about my work.
