Paritosh Sen - Young Women before the Mirror Acrylic on Canvas 24 x 12 inches, 2005 (Framed & Delivered) Paritosh Sen’s Young Woman Before the Mirror (2005) combines bold lines and expressive forms to explore identity and self-perception. The stylized figure, poised in an intimate moment, reflects the artist’s signature blend of wit, introspection, and modernist aesthetics. A stunning work in colors on "red, Blue Gold in Acrylic on Board , By the Great Indian Modern Artist of 20th Century, a student of Piccasso and greatly influenced by his style.. The works is priced at a very very special price and is being offered to 1st dibs buyers at a very special rate . An illustrator and a painter, Paritosh Sen is one of the most celebrated painters of the Indian art field, who believes that “the success of a painting lies in the artist’s willingness to deal with each painting on it’s own terms”. Sen is known for his vivid illustrations of everyday urban life. His strokes are bold and stylized which help his human figures express a myriad of emotions. Style : Sen has experimented in various media from oil and water-colour to etching, to even acrylic which is quite rare for an artist of his generation. Paritosh Sen’s style never remained the same and it is not possible to categorise his works into any specific art genre. A painter, illustrator, tutor and writer, Paritosh Sen has been a part of the world of Indian art, for close to four decades now. Sen’s more recognizable works are his caricatures, which reflect strong underlying socio-political shades, and his female nude drawings. His style of representation is influenced by his exposure to Western Modern art, and has traces of cubism. He uses two dimensional, structured planes but still creates an illusion of voluptuousness. His drawings and paintings are noted for their strong lines and bold, stylised strokes. Although colour is an important aspect of his paintings, it is the human figure, expressing a myriad of emotions, that dominates his art. A recurrent subject in Sen’s works is his depiction of scenes from everyday urban life. These activities are rendered from a cynical and detached perspective, which is typically Sen’s viewpoint.
