Kali - II Painting

The exploration of nature in art can take endless forms, because nature provides us with such a vast wealth of inspiring phenomena. Artwork based on nature can take many forms and serve many purposes. There are many different ways to approach the subject of nature in art. Art can open our eyes to the intricacy and beauty of the natural world. Ratna Bose in the present series of her work creates a relation among human beings, animals with the nature. She has used contemporary technique and has presented human faces and owls which express their existence in nature with technical excellence. The courageous experimentation and the massiveness is the main attraction of her work. Ratna Bose's artwork is notable for its varied and subtle use of color to depict atmosphere and draw the eye to small details and patterns which could otherwise have gone unnoticed. Rounded or sharply straight lines, used economically form the backbone of most of her sketches, and are brought to life with the use of vivid coloration and light and shadow.
