Desi Art...Jens Kunik

Tuesday, September 18, 2012

I find it pretty challenging to round up Indian artists and/or Indian inspired art for that matter. It is much harder than it looks. Maybe one day I will have droves of Indian artists and folks who generate Indian inspired art automatically sending me links to their work so that I can share it with the world! In the meantime, I will continue to stay on the hunt for it.  So when I find something that is 'desi' inspired, my heart usually skips a beat or two. That pretty much happened to me when I found the work of German artist Jens Kunik. His brief stint in India in early 2012 created lovely watercolours that have me wanting to see so much more!
My favourite. "Moment of Relaxation" by Jens Kunik. Available on Saatchi Online.
Jens Kunik's "Nandi" can be seen here.
Jens Kunik's "Meditation" also found here. Pretty.

I agree. These paintings are gorgeous! I like the first painting, there are so many layers of different landscape and animals. Great find Sundeep!

I love this artwork - stunning colors and the technique lends an ethereal feel to the pieces.

I am an Indian and I can make out the reasons that has inspired the painter to draw such a beautiful art,especially "Nandi" it's truly Indian. Love your post. :)
