a Beauty of Illiteratea , series
Saurashtra is a vast & abundant land of agriculture, cattle and authentic heritage. People bring their herd of cattle to green forest & meadows for grazing. During the whole day they enjoy tea with their smoking in their unique ways of sitting posture, I accompany them to the nearby forest all day. While observing their ongoing activities I can notice how tension free and full of life they are. These moments of them which are fearless, worthless about future, that appears on their innocent and dark faces, with a complete feeling of satisfaction, is what I imbibe capture and create which are reflected in my paintings.
I was inspired by their dark complexion, dirty white attire and very bold yet sober way of sitting. I try to represent their moods style gestures and transform them in my paintings with water colors wash technique and have derived my creation called a Beauty of Illiteratea in this scintillating and beautiful series. My ultimate ambition is to bring their simplicity and unique ways into reality with my paintings.
