Deep in Woods




Rhythms of Nature have always fascinated me. This is a series of landscape paintings on Wayanad, Kerala,  the birthplace of my Mother. This painting is going to be exhibited at a Group Art Show "Laya - Rhythms of Nature and Dance". The Show is from 4th till 10th October 2013 at Gallery No 4, Karnataka Chitrakala Parishad, Bangalore.

Flower Girl II


Another one in this series, where she traded with my cousin that he should buy her flowers for Rs 10,  so that he can click her picture.

The Flower Girl


A young girl, who works as a Flower Girl on the streets of Varanasi also attends to school in the afternoon. I love the determined look in her eyes to sell all the flowers for a meagre Rs 30, which meant so much to her, as she uses this money for her studies.

Boy with the Rooster





The Second in the series on Simple Joys of Life. Nanjamma's son Murli holding his pet rooster "Kuruba". They were always inseparable. Can never forget the innocent eyes of Murli.

Wedding Gift



This is a series of paintings on Simple Joys of Life. The village woman carrying a Jackfruit as a Wedding Gift is etched in my childhood memory, that I decided to pay tribute to this beautiful woman Nanjamma.

Black Beauty





The Third painting on the Tribal Series. A real beauty, from the 1930's, that I just wanted to paint her.

Flower Power






The second of the paintings on Tribal women. The look in the proud young bride eyes was so bewitching, that I decided to pay tribute to her on Canvas.

Tribal Woman and Child






This was a series of paintings, which I had done on Tribal women, with such fascinating characters. This was one of my works for India Art Festival, Mumbai 2012.  Here the mother is in such a deep faraway thought whereas, the child has a very curious and innocent look.
