Endeavoring to capture the essence of spirituality and mysticism through colors, artist Kamlesh Sharma’s maiden painting exhibition concluded at Lokayata, Hauz Khaz Village. The exhibition was on display from February 17 to 23, 2012 and it received a very encouraging response from the audience in these seven days. The most intriguing aspect of Mrs. Sharma’s maiden exhibition was that the entire collection was painted without the use of brushes.

The collection was a vivid anthology of paintings that threw light on the artist’s acute sense of imagination and observation pertaining to different shades of life and the inner self. The paintings left behind a powerful statement owing to the unique perspective and insight that Mrs. Sharma drew out from everyday life. A look at the paintings and one began to explore the subtle strokes of color that fit in together to make it a very alive and interesting series.

Commenting on the occasion, Mrs. Sharma says, “This was my first exhibition, though I started painting a long time ago. Showcasing my work for the first time, I was a little apprehensive about how it will be received by the people. 

But the kind of response which my work generated exceeded my expectations. What fascinated people the most was the use of different techniques of painting while not using the brushes at all. I am very touched by the encouragement I have received and this will keep me going and motivated to bring out interesting pieces of art in near future.”

Mrs. Sharma uses a wide range of mediums and materials like oil, acrylic, charcoal, paints to express her creativity. Her work is a mélange of color, creativity, composition, and expressions that are finely tuned together to produce art with vitality and visual vibrancy. Her art is lyrical and gives a definitive meaning to the objects on the canvas.
