Live Art Demonstrations and Creative Workshops
Experience the technical discipline of academic realism. I conduct live painting demonstrations and hands-on workshops for students, institutions, and fellow educators to share the traditional techniques of oil and acrylic painting.

About Live Demonstrations & Workshops
Watching the brush move across the canvas is how I learned from my own Gurus, and it is the most effective way to teach. My workshops are not lectures; they are immersive, disciplined sessions where we break down academic realism, anatomical correctness, and perspective. Whether you are a student preparing for a competition or an educator looking to sharpen your teaching approach, we focus on the foundational methods that make art timeless.
I believe that true art education requires a direct line of sight between the mentor and the student. When I conduct a live painting demonstration, I do not just show the result; I explain every stroke, the mixing of pigments, and the decision-making process that goes into a piece, whether it is an oil portrait or a landscape.
Hands-On Workshops
My workshops are designed for those who want to move beyond basic theory. We cover:
- Academic Realism: Mastering light, shadow, and form.
- Medium Mastery: Practical techniques for oil, acrylic, and watercolor.
- Competition Strategy: Insider guidance on what juries look for, based on my experience judging state and international art competitions.
Who This Is For
I work with a diverse range of learners, from school students finding their creative voice to fellow art teachers refining their professional practice. I have conducted sessions for the Maharashtra State Art Teachers Association and organized community painting events to promote social awareness, such as the Nashik Municipal Corporation’s voting awareness campaign.
The Workshop Environment
I maintain a focused and quiet studio atmosphere in Nashik for my regular sessions, but I am equally comfortable bringing this environment to your school, college, or event venue. If you are looking for a session that combines historical technique with modern application, I am here to guide you. Let us work together to build your skills, one brushstroke at a time.
