As per Mahesh

It is my humble effort to depict the charming “Beauty” in women. Women are born with immense beauty not only their body but their heart, mind, and culture that nature has gifted to them. All these qualities to attract towards them and enchant me more than any things. I try to present these gods gifted qualities through hairs of paint brush. This is the main reason I have selected “Women” as matter of subject in my paintings. Women have an inborn capability to handle the most difficult things even the suffering easily with omnipresent “smile” on their face. They are the most beautiful creation by God on this mother earth. Trough strokes of paint brush I desire to color her real picture, I have witnessed in her.

Great painters like John singer sarjant and Anders zorn are the idols before me and to mention others, I have a great fascination for the paintings of John sarjant ,Zorn, Rembrant, Monet, Devid lafel etc. from western world. It is my humble endaevour to fallow these great men and at the same time make me known through / earn name by my presentation

I have grown up in this field looking at the paintings of most revered painters in India like kala maharshi baburao painter, Ravinra mestri, Haldankar , Sambhaji kadam. These great artists have left an immemorial impact on my mind and of course, my paintings.
