Trikaal... diary (Part 1)

Live in present...

Paint the past!

...for what?

For self happiness

But... that colouring is for future as well, for colouring future becomes a page of history! A renowned economist and writer Dr. Narendra Jadhav says, “Future never forgives, those who forget the past.” It is true and is acceptable to the creative mind like mine.

It is my innate character to go deep down nostalgia and paint those memories. That is why I could create art till now. There is no dotage, neither for childhood memories nor for enrapturing their ambience.

All my childhood memories are sketched in the diary as if each creation depicts a page of my reminiscence. I have preserved ‘Myself’ and have let ‘Myself’ to wander with self-contentment in it.

Sometimes on earth and in the sky,

In the midst of flora or even on the back of the buffalo,

As if I had wings of mind to fly...

My mind opens out to life and my perception let my hand to create art ……... deliberately... undeliberately. Whatever we do is just equivalent to our persona. I am a simple village artist, born and bred in a pristine scenic beauty of Vasai. This kindled me for nurturing the fragrance of Vasai soil through my art.

I like to say the same which I have been expressing earlier.

Let the past which is being coloured in form of a diary may become a page of history in future and let there be essence of Vasai’s soil forever...

The 19 Indian Ink on paper sketches depict different biblical episodes such as ‘The triumphant march,’ ‘Face of Christ,’ ‘Christ in Gethsemane garden,’ ‘Christ’s final submission’ and also various portraits of Christ wearing an expression of pain that are intricately drawn with the dark strokes. Testimonial s : “God lies in details and these paintings with fine details has the capaci...

Faces of Velankanni

My last visit to southern India (velankanni) bought some beautiful memories with it. Remembering the places, I recollected some faces, their expressions and appearances. Tonsuring is a common practice followed by some religious devotees. I tried to capture their feelings by canvas'ing' them.. Even today each painted face reminds me of particular place and my interactions there...
