Vishnu Sonavane

Sonavane made his mark as a painter in 1992 with his exhibition at Jehangir Art Gallery. He has won applause for his socially oriented artwork, a quality very much visible even in his new works today. “The colors I used hark back to Renaissance era and are evocative, as they are sensuous. I play with the use of light on the canvas.” He manipulates textures to an extent, where they appear quite diffused,” – Vishnu Sonavane.
