Ganesh – Basuki Dasgupta

Brand: Eikowa
Artist: Basuki Dasgupta

Basuki found his muse in Goddess Durga, who he compares with the common Indian woman.

He uses earth tones of greens, yellows, and blues in the background of his paintings. However, the bright red bindi and lips are the main highlights of his subjects. Basuki’s subjects carry a strong resemblance with the puppets, often seen in Bengali folk art. His paintings are mostly semi-abstract and are heavily textured.
