Dr. M.S. Amarnath has been painting for 35 years in various mediums and is particularly drawn to using the Abstract form of painting; “because it gives me tremendous freedom and pleasure. I also focus on the equilibrium of form, colour, and space. Innovation and experimentation are the main driving forces of my work. I constantly look for new combinations and new imagery in my work.”

 

In this painting for ‘BRIDGE2WORLDS’ he cites “I contemplated deeply and recollected my thoughts and memories about life, nature, and spirituality. The essential aspect of the painting is that it is a celebration of life in nature. In the composition I experimented with forms and colours to achieve a simplified, semi-figurative format.
