Artist #SandeepYadav's Ultramarine Peacocks at #AuraArt


Artist Sandeep Yadav blends the colour blue of an ultramarine hue into the paper and lo and behold a beautiful bird manifests. This is the remarkable skill that this artist has displayed in his beautifully rendered water colour works. Sandeep has a Diploma in Commercial Art from Abhinav Kala Mahavidyalaya along with a Diploma in Painting from Kalasagar Kala Mahavidyalaya Pune. Together his education gives him the know how of handling shape, form, line and colour. His works appear simplistic at first glance and one is tempted to associate the numerous renditions of the national bird, Peacock to some kind of spiritual or religious undertones. Yet, the artist in him implies tranquility in all these works. Whether the bird is shown foraging alone in the woods or forest areas or if there is boy-talk happening at the watering hole in the jungle amongst many peacocks, the impression the viewer is given is that of peace and harmony. In a world torn apart by hate and discrimination, Sandeep waves the gentle fans of love and peace through these exquisite works. The interesting part about these works is that none of these ‘proud’ birds appear proud or arrogant, and that is something to notice in time of fragile egos and easily hurt sentiments.
