Atul Pande, Featured Artist for October 2023
Atul Pande Lower Gallery Featured Artist Show Fine Art Paintings “I am a self-taught painter working in water-based media, mainly acrylic. My style is based on the non-objective modern expressionist movement that originated in post-WWII New York. I work in an intuitive manner exploring line, form and color, but without a goal in mind.”My upbringing in colorful India, and my training as a physician and scientist, inspires me to meld colors and shapes on the canvas to create organic forms that spontaneously engage viewers. The finished painting evolves from the layers of paint I add to each piece. Some works may have as many as half a dozen layers that add to the perception of depth. “Though the combination of lines and shapes may be perceived in my art by the viewer as a certain object, this is rarely by design. It is an indication that the viewer has engaged on multiple levels beyond just the immediate visual interest of the piece.” Gallery Atrium Party & Artists Reception on Saturday October 14th from 3pm to 5pm in Gallery at Marina Square, Morro Bay.
