paper Boats

Medium : Acrylic on canvas
Dimension : 4' X 3'
An Indian lady with some paper boats. Our LIFE is like paper boats in a river. Rabindranath Tagore wrote in his poem on Boats: "Day by day I float my paper boats one by one down the running stream. In bid black letters I write my name on them and the name of the village where I live. I hope that someone in some strange land will find them and know who I am." The style is a mixture of Indian Folk style & Bengal School of art. I think that art is an ever-changing, unpredictable journey. My paintings bring forth spontaneity to the subject that I choose to depict. My paintings have a touch of expressionism in pulsating vibrant colours. The bold lines and bright colours, enhance the meaning of my paintings in an appealing manner & blends different colours producing harmony and symmetry in inimitable style. My expressionist approach gives the painting a unique style which depicts a living picture of the rustic life of India with simple subjects that readily appeals to the classes as well as the masses.
