Shikari's dream
Size- 150-120 cms/ canvas; 1999.
Shikari means 'a hunter' and his dream and reality is to 'hunt' but here they all are, 'captured' as a part of an artist's dream on a tapestry. Quite unlike the image I have in my mind of a hunter, here he looks beautiful with his 'feminine' appeal and his lady looks equally graceful without really looking like a woman.
Private Collection. Not for sale.

These beautiful and sensual ladies take care of their orchard while the men watch them silently from their windows. The fruit here is these ladies themselves, who appear to be so innocent and delicate in their glowing white bodies.

Celebrity
125-105 cms/ canvas; 1999.
A photograph I saw in a book inspires this painting. Here I have tried to depict the 'bonding' between good friends. Even though there is a celebrity amongst them in 'red' yet, all inhibitions melt when these good friends meet. They always enjoy the warmth in each other's hearts. In this painting I have used "DRIP" technique, which I enjoy a lot.

Lady with a little lamb
Lady with a little lamb
120-120 cms/ canvas; 1999.
She is protective of the little that is not her own
Caressing it with the passion in "red", she holds the newborn.
Her love reflects purity and so her eyes. Even the whites of her robe! Yet, she is possessive of the little lamb.... that is not her own.

Massage
80-70 cms/ canvas; 1999.
Here a young girl gets a massage in a parlour where she finds herself detached from reality, when she closes her eyes briefly…she finds a new unexplored world through her closed eyes which is vibrant, different from the suffocating world of reality.

Last valentine
  Last valentine
80-70 cms/ canvas; 1999.
She saw passion in their deep penetrating eyes
Lovers, who had waited endlessly
For a special day when she would say a "yes"
To their many nervous lines from the heart..
It has been the same, since many last valentines.

The bride in waiting
125-105 cms/ canvas; 1999.
I am the bride in waiting
clubs embroider my veil,
Hoping to find my prince
Before the daisies' dry.
My red robe has enough gold
I know….
to reflect light and show him the way.

My turquoise veil
My turquoise veil
125-105 cms/ canvas; 1999.
We are a part of the group, we think so alike
We steal thoughts from each other's minds
But I wonder why we still fight!
It is some bonding .. Its colour maybe 'turquoise'
It helps us be together and maintain our poise.

Krishna
150-37.5 cms/ canvas (size of a single panel); 1999.
These panels reflect stories that may have been for real, from Indian mythology. Krishna, our lord is The procreator, The purifier, powerful omni-present and imperishable. Here he is seen as a lover, pacifying Radha, his beloved (panel 1,4); and in his immortal role, powerful, setting the norms of life sacrifice, action, knowledge and worship. (Panel 2,3)
