Artworks By Yugalkishor Sharma
Yugalkishor Sharma
Statement
Born in a family of traditional miniature painters of Nathdwara in Rajasthan, I learned the techniques in my childhood and then worked to develop them further by joining the art college where I did my Ph.D. on Nathdwara Paintings. I follow the traditional miniature art practice technique but also like to experiment in new materials and techniques. I like work in small size and use wasli, gold leaf, silver dust, metal work, natural colours in thin lines and doting with glazing effect. I like to work on new concepts. Sometimes I mix the different colours and forms to create a mystical effect around mythology, poetry and contemporary issues.
