The International Centre, Goa and Indian Ateliers, Goa organized a painting demonstration on December 5th, of well-known artist, Ramesh P. Gujar, at The International Centre, Dona Paula, Goa - India.
Pune based Ramesh is a qualified artist with over 15 years of experience in the field of art. He has worked in various genre and exhibited immense capacity. Over the years, he has executed paintings that are replicas of old western and Indian masters. The copy of Raja Ravi Verma’s paintings does display his draftsmanship.
Ramesh, after the initial struggling days, went on to indulge in creative painting. His style is simple and lines very lyrical. Each of his painting is poetry in colour. Innocent subjects and identifiable forms connect with the viewers. Even his series on Lord Buddha touches the heart.
Stylistically closer to eastern genre, Ramesh does take the liberty to stylize the figures and distort the forms wherever required. Bright and vibrant colours play an important role in his paintings and they help sooth the mind.
He has many exhibitions of his paintings to his credit and participated in various group shows. His works are in public and private collection in India and abroad.
The demonstrations were followed by a slideshow of his works and an interactive session moderated by yours truly.
