Afza Tamakanat
Isolation, Coffee & Watercolour on Acid Free Paper by Indian Artist "In Stock"

2014

About the Item

Afza Tamakanat - Isolation Coffee & Watercolour on Acid Free Paper, 42 x 48 inches, 2014 Born in 1990, Hyderabad, art engages with an array of socio-political issues. Daughter of one of Hyderabad's better-known artists, Fawad Tamkanat, Afza picked up the brush at a very young age. As she watched her dad paint, Afza says she would also pick up crayons and sketches and paint on the walls and on bed sheets. Her art can be perceived as bold, like her incredibly independent mind. In her own words, “I don’t hate you, but I respect me. Your comments, your opinions do not define me. I do not care what you think about me, because I don’t think about you at all. I cannot improve my work when I am surrounded with negative energy that only tries to bring me down… I let my work speak for itself.”

  • Old Kolkata, Watercolour on Paper by Contemporary Artist 'In Stock'
    By Saikat Maity
    Located in Kolkata, West Bengal
    Saikat Maity - Old Kolkata - 14 x 16 inches (Unframed Size) Watercolour on Paper Saikat uses the ‘wash’, ‘glaze’ and ‘wet in wet’ methods of application to produce a huge variety of striking works. The artist has selected the iconic landmark of Kolkata city, during the peak of the British Empire in India. This ethereal scene with the Heritage Building and motor cab is captivating and encapsulates the character of the heritage city with drama and poise. The watercolor artist has avoided excessive detailing and by highlighting just the key features of a Heritage Building & Old Kolkata Streets with crumbling structures, results in a fresh, inviting composition. Style : Saikat does his painting in stages, starting with large, vague color areas established on wet paper, then refines the image through a sequence of washes and glazes, making the works as durable as oils or acrylics. The pigments are held by arabic gum with additives like glycerine and solvents that give the medium durability. Watercolors appear more vivid than acrylics or oils because the pigments are laid down in a more pure form with fewer fillers obscuring the pigment colors. Multiple layers of watercolor thus achieve a very luminous effect. Water being an active and complex partner in the watercolor painting process, it changes the outlines and appearance of the paint as it dries. Saikat has mastered the difficult art of anticipating and leveraging the behavior of water, rather than attempting to control it. Saikat uses the ‘wash’, ‘glaze’ and ‘wet in wet’ methods of application to produce a huge variety of striking works, definitely worth collecting. In my watercolour paintings, the beauty lies in the freshness of colours, their transparency and purity along with a slightly unfinished look resulting in a more natural effect. My watercolours try infusing life in common place objects and making them look spectacularly real. About the Artist & his art works : Born : 1981. Education : 2007 : B.V.A (Drawing & Painting ) from Indian College of Art & Draftsmanship in Kolkata with 1st Class. Group Shows : Saikat has exhibited his paintings in group shows across Bangalore, Kolkata, Chennai and Mumbai. Awards & Recognition : 2007 - Best Water...
