About Original Shruti Nelson Paintings

This collection of works by Shruti Nelson takes us into her dreamlike world. To capture the essence of movement, time, change and metamorphosis in nature her paintings feature flora, fauna and human beings in harmony. There is a sense of tranquility in these works. From watercolours on paper, collage to acrylic on canvas these works portray Shruti Nelson's adeptness at handling various mediums.

This multi-faceted artist apart from experimented with sculpting and fashion design has handled various media with equal ease, watercolors on paper or acrylic on canvas and acrylic on garments. Indeed, the artist loves to experiment; she continuously explores and innovates, and does not follow a particular pattern or set into a mould. She has dabbled in textile designing as well, marking her impatience with the uniform rectangular flatness of the canvas and the passion to craft something that encases the human body.

She often works on several paintings at once, sometimes in different mediums. She doesn???t stop at painting, and expresses herself by pasting cutouts of animal figures over painted surfaces, burning paper, puncturing the surface in neat circles, and sticking sequins. Shruti Nelson???s paintings are infused with a boundless energy as she pours her heart out into her paintings. She uses layers and layers of colors, whether they are acrylic on canvas or the sensitive medium of watercolors on paper. Her hold over watercolors is especially remarkable.

She explores and innovates, and portrays her dreams with renewed zest. Her signature style is versatile: it contains her essence, and yet, is not repetitive. She works straight on the canvas with no preparatory drawings, filling up spaces with her drawings. She scribbles, superimposes, cuts and then drowns her images in broad swathes of color washes and just when the painting is on the verge of collapse under the ensuing chaos she sets about to rescue them. In fact, the artist 'identifies' with these characters subliminally. A desire to walk into the looking glass and emerge transformed in her personalized wonderland is unmistakable. She gives a vent to desire and intimate fantasies through her creations.
