  1. Swaraj Das is a contemporary Indian full-time artist, drawing inspiration from the works of artists such as Rembrandt, John Singer Sargent, and Pablo Picasso. He plays with brush strokes, colours, light and shade, endeavouring to transfer positive energy and emotion onto the canvas. Through his upcoming solo exhibition of paintings - 'Delighted Light', Swaraj Das gives a sense of space, the soft muted color, the strong light source, all adding up to a wonderful interpretation of city life. The exhibition will be held at the Kamalnayan Bajaj Art Gallery in Mumbai, from 9th to 14th June, 2014.
