Born in India, now living in Norway, Sriram is a slef-taught artist who took to painting in his late 30s. Sriram's paintings showcase people on the move in their daily life from the places he has lived and travelled around the globe. His favourite subjects are people on the streets going about their daily lives from young to old, from reading to walking their pets to browsing or just a chit-chat.
After exploring art with acrylics, Sriram settled into paint with watercolours as its fluidity allowed him to experiment with light and the non-existence of it. The ebb and flow of water and pigments is what his paintings showcase. His works depict that side of humans who sometimes absorbed in their world tend to forget what moves around them. People are core to his paintings. Its not so much about the anatomy but its the lines and shapes, edges, light and shadow that reveals the mood of the subject.
He also enjoys exploring other mediums such as Oils for small and affordable art focussing on plien air landscapes, still life and figurative subjects at his home studio.
Having graduated in Bachelors of Commerce, Sriram took to painting in his late 30s. As a self-taught artist, his passion for drawing and painting means that every work has turned into a learning process. His inspirations are some of the contemporary artists such as Alvaro Castagnet, Eudes Corriea, Joseph Zbukvic, Graham Berry, Rajkumar Stabathy, Dan Garzino, Craig Stephen and more
