How: Photo Genius Art or Photo Genius Painting is created when an artist chooses a photograph and then transfers it on to canvas. He then works on it with oil paints to achieve an entirely new creation. While the photograph acts as the starting point, the final painting can move towards any form — from realistic to figurative to semi or pure abstract.
Swirling Costume: This is a tribal dancer’s rhythm captured in colours and movements
Flaming Passion: This painting began as a picture of a candle flame, which was then given the shape of two human figures in a passionate encounter
Where: Till June 15, 11 am to 7 pm
Cycle of nature: The rotational magic of a moving click lends itself to an amazing picture, where the brush strokes match the style and direction of the photographic detail
At: Artists’ Centre, K Dubash Marg, Kala Ghoda.
