Live Painting Demonstrations & Art Workshops for Colleges

Setting up the canvas and palette for a portrait demonstration at the Raja Ravi Varma Art Gallery for students. The focus is on showing how to capture a likeness and mood quickly and effectively.

The completed portrait from the demonstration at Abhinav Kala Mahavidyalaya. This piece, done with expressive brushwork against a rich red background, shows the final result of the live session.

Engaging with students during a live oil painting demonstration at Nav Krishna Valley College of Fine Art in Sangli. I believe in an interactive approach, answering questions about technique and materials throughout the session.

Here I am applying the initial layers of color for a portrait at the Nav Krishna Valley College demonstration. The process begins with broad strokes to establish the composition and color harmony.

The final oil on canvas portrait created during the demonstration in Sangli. The striking red turban is rendered with bold, confident knife work, a key element of my expressive style.
