My Bio
My name is Pratyasha Nithin. I am an Indian and currently staying at Paradeep, Odisha. I am a self-taught artist from 2010. I usually work on topics taken from Hindu mythologies and Characters based on their Dyana-Mantras (meditative descriptions) from scriptures. My favorite medium to paint is acrylic colors on canvas, but I also like to experiment with different mediums on different platforms. I believe every subject is a challange which enables you to further improve your style and technique of Art-making. I take inspiration from the art-works of Raja Ravi Varma.
"The art is in the heart(Hrdaya) of the artist(Karaka) before the work is done and of the spectator(Bhogin) who when the work is done has grasped it's meaning."
--Ananda K. Coomaraswamy

Nudity in art-work may enhance the beauty of the subject of that art-work or it may turn the art-work into a pathetic and vulgar piece. It all depends upon the subject of the art-work as well as the mind and style of the artist. If the subject does not demand it and just for the sake of making it look attractive one paints it nude, there are chances that it will destroy the beauty of the subject. And if the subject demands nudity and one do not include it in the subject, and then also it will ruin the beauty of the artwork.
The outcome of an artwork also depends upon the character and the mind-set of the artist. How an artist understands a s

Art as a Sadhana
0 min read
An art is a Sadhana(spiritual effort), an ever learning process in which an artist is always a student. He may or may not have a physical teacher. But he is always taught by his own thoughts and sense perceptions. Nature is the greatest teacher and one learns a lot of things just by observing her. The work of the nature and the Physical teacher is to help a student to discover his own inner Self which is the inner guide and teacher. And once the inner self starts to guide an artist, art will flow out of him spontaneously. It is this state of spontaneity, an artist must aspire to achieve because without spontaneity it is impossible to achieve

Shiva is not Blue but White
0 min read
Why everybody paints Lord Shiva blue? It is like blindly following a trend without understanding the basic aspects of the subject. Shiva is in fact, white like a camphor. Only the throat of Shiva is blue because he had consumed halahala poison to save universe. It is Mahakaala who is black and could be depicted blue that is artistic black.
The following sloka describes Shiva as:
