Even though he began painting in his sixties, he managed to produce thousands of works. His individual painting style with simple bold forms has inspired many modern Indian artists.#WorldArtDay pic.twitter.com/0K5fmEwq6l
Happy #worldartday2025 Embroidery is my art. I like to entwine threads and make imaginary pictures using the needle like a paintbrush. I create as I go so it’s a very slow process but I love it.🪡 Here’s just a few of them… 😊🌿🌺#stitchedart #WorldArtDay #thesewingsongbird pic.twitter.com/fKCp5RVksA

I am so grateful to be able to play with oils for a living, create and learn everyday, and express myself and share my world on a canvas.
Art is pretty great.#WorldArtDay2025 #WorldArtDay pic.twitter.com/kA57QaIfe0
