The Painting

A tonal study in crimson, where blocks of deep red and maroon emerge softly from one another. Working almost entirely in one colour, the artist builds a quiet composition from shades of red. A tall, brighter crimson rectangle sits on the left, beside a larger, darker maroon block, while deeper wine-red bands frame the left edge and lighter red fills the space to the right and below. The shapes are revealed only through subtle shifts in tone, so the painting seems to change with the light, with edges appearing and fading the longer you look. Painted in oil on paper with fine, close vertical strokes, the surface has a soft, velvety depth. Rich, intimate and contemplative, it adds warmth to a reading corner, bedroom or any space meant for stillness.

The Artform

Contemporary art is free of fixed rules or traditions. Artists explore their own ideas, emotions and experiences through form, colour and texture. Instead of showing things exactly as they appear, this work often leans towards abstraction, with flowing shapes, soft or bold edges, and fine layered details. Colour plays a central role. Deep indigo and blue washes give calm and depth, greens and violets add richness, and touches of gold or crimson bring warmth and energy. The result is art that feels personal and open to many readings, and it brings a modern, expressive character to any space.

The Artist

Namrata Kumar is an artist and graphic designer based out of New Delhi, India. She graduated from the Srishti School of Art & Design, Bangalore, India in 2010 and has been a practicing graphic designer, illustrator and painter ever since. Namrata feels the most inspired when she travels, she feels experiencing new cultures, people and places helps to give her perspective. The change in environment, unfamiliar sights, sounds, colours and smells are invigorating and energising, leading to new ways of seeing. Being born to a textile designer, she is deeply interested in textiles and fabric. She is in particular enamoured by the Sari, which is the subject of many of her artworks. Namrata also has a keen interest in ceramics and pottery and is working on incorporating this medium into her practice. Namrata works with oil and acrylic paint in addition to oil pastels. She also works extensively on Adobe Photoshop to create digital paintings particularly when executing commercial projects.
