Download PDF (35 K)NEERAJ GOSWAMI
Neeraj Goswami has made the medium of oils his own achieving a brilliance and vibrancy that is outstanding. Using tones of Celadon Porcelain and Onyx Styrations, Goswami gives his canvases a gentle radiance. His paintings glow like precious stones with translucence rarely seen. Through this sheer haze his characters come alive almost as if they are ready to walk out of the canvas. The vitality and life-like images of his paintings have made Goswami one of the most sought after artists of his generation
