Glowing colours and economic use of lines characterise the works of Raktim Chatterjee. Water colours form the backbone of his art, playing the parts of crisp, clear outlines, detailed shading and blurred and smoky backgrounds. The sketched borders are kept to a minimum on subjects and are not found at all on the backdrops or the shading. These are worked out in fading, seemingly carelessly applied brushstrokes, which give the effect of a great distance. The foreground colours shine out of the canvas and shading gives the subjects an appearance of intricate detail.
