Beyond India

Venice at the hour the canals turn copper. The Cinque Terre with its five towns folded into a coastline. Tuscany’s afternoon haze across a rolling country. Positano on the Amalfi cliff. A small Paris café-street at the hour the awnings come down.

Compositions across this collection paint a brief European interlude — places the artist has been to and continues to return to in oil. The palette knife reads European stone differently than it reads Indian sandstone: the colour is cooler, the shadows are sharper, the water sits a different way.

For collectors who want a different country on the wall, painted in the same register.
