Venice (2019) Peinture par Varun N Rao

I am a Bengaluru-based, self-taught artist proficient in portraiture, still-life, contemporary and abstract paintings using various mediums such as oil-based pencils, acrylic, and oil paint mediums. I also create caricatures and pop art using digital mediums.I have been creating art for the past 10 years and have also participated in various solo and group art exhibitions across prominent art galleries and art cafes in Bengaluru and Mumbai. Some of these art galleries include Karnataka Chitra Kala Parishath Venkatappa Art Gallery, Art Houz, DYUArt Café, (all in Bengaluru), and World Trade Center (Mumbai). My art journey has been featured in prominent newspaper publications such as New IndianExpress, The Hindu, Prajavani, The Mint, Sakshi Telugu, in magazines such as Creative Gaga, Inspiro India, and online portals such as YourStory, Abstract Oval, and Banani Vista. Apart from creating art, I love to mentor budding artists and guide them to pursue and grow in their art journey.

Being a self-taught artist gave me an opportunity to learn from my surroundings, the subjects that inspire me, and artists whose works have captivated me. I have developed a keen sense of observation arising out of curiosity to know how other artists create artwork, what were the thoughts behind it, how did he/she create the painting, etc. I have used the learnings from these observations to try various genres, and mediums, and eventually grow as an artist. The challenge of learning something new is what I love the most and look forward to. When I draw or paint, I forget the reality around me and immerse in a world full of endless possibilities to create what I imagine and visualize. And, that I feel is the ultimate experience of being an artist.
