A lover of nature, Bhanu draws inspiration from it. Bold, strong and dauntless, these two pieces are remindful of the strong, warm colours of the elements of earth. With big, purposeful and insistent brush strokes, Bhanu incorporates his thoughts and emotions into his paintings. Although the artist goes beyond the rules of the physical, representational and figurative manifestations of solid forms and figures, he creates a stunning piece that evokes from the viewers a strong admiration of earth and the implications that come with it – passion, strength, anger, inner demons, bright and headstrong.
