Yashwant Shriwadkar’s paintings capture the fleeting light and ever-changing atmosphere in nature. Rendered in impressionist style these paintings evoke a sense of movement and atmosphere in landscape paintings. Color and light played a profound role in Shriwadkar’s painting process. Before painting on the canvas, he made several sketches on site, in the open, using sunlight as the only source of light.

Shirwadkar’s oil-on-canvases garnered widespread acclaim, resonating not just with Indian audiences but captivating hearts globally.Spanning over 45 years, Shirwadkar’s prolific artistic career was marked by an impressive legacy of around 100 solo exhibitions and over 260 group shows both in India and internationally. Through this extensive body of work, he established a prosperous art career and earned a prominent reputation in the art world before his passing in 2020.

Shirwadkar’s approach to painting landscapes went beyond mere depictions of sites or anonymous figures. His focus delved into capturing the enveloping warmth and color of sunlight, not merely the physical surroundings.Ends
