A brief of Artist and predominant themes occurring in Artwork
“Creation is my lifeâ€, this is the philosophy and inspiration for Hariom Kuthwaria – an artist with deep sensibility. Keeping a sensitive heart and mind, he expresses his dreams and imaginations through his paintings. He believes that there exists a relationship of emotions among nature, animals and human beings.
As specialty, an artist in him gets motivation from the tributes of Indian Culture and in this process, his core strength gets reflected. His paintings connect in the manner that they express sensitivity and depth. He loves to experiment with various mediums including water, acrylic and oil colour on canvass.
Due to urbanization, many species are on verge of extinction and this makes an artist like him restless inside. In close association with nature and humanity, Hariom’s paintings generally showcase the wishful harmony for co-existence and peace. This rich imagination gives him the inspiration to paint a complete world, for which he strives to see unwaveringly.
He loves to experiment with various mediums including water, acrylic, and oil colour on canvas.
