Descripción del Artista

DR REHAMAN PATEL More than four decades have spent in the field of visual art. Working with many projects and also as a journalist regularly, made him to live strongly. After experimenting a lot of works now got new identity by innovation of a unique composition method. This revolutionary, fundamental method is now my characteristic identity by which I want to be recognised here after. My new discovery has given me a charismatic, magical and amazing feeling, which is beyond my imagination, says Pune-based senior artist Ramesh Aundkar. He is a retired faculty from Pune-based Symbiosis Institute of Design. He is an alumnus, fellow and Gold medalist of reputed institute Sir JJ School of Art, Mumbai While doing regular drawing and sketching exercise I found and have developed this unique method of composing elements of art. This has happened for the first time in the history of art. I think never before has any artist done it or thought about such a method of composition he explained. Aundkar says any abstract composition can be seen in 4 positions, it's normal. But my composition is not abstract. My composition is figurative but not realistic and still can be seen in 4 positions with meaningful outcomes each time. My figures are stylistic and imaginary but identical. This composition method is unique and something different. The 4 sides feel different content, topic or subject depicted at every position. My style is a bit decorative but figurative, Indian decorative, imaginary, which can be seen in ancient Indian temples. Human figures, male/females, birds, animals, fish, butterflies etc. which appear unintentionally. I have not planned anything nor composed any figures, nor lines or tones, textures. I found it while practicing my regular sketching and drawing. This has happened during every process of drawing and is happening repeatedly. Basically Aundkar has painted in all mediums like Acrylics, Oils, Pastel, Inks and Watercolors on Canvas, board and paper.
