Among the displayed works 15 are landscape drawings, made using black ink pen on paper. These works have been painted in miniature style.
“I have exhibited my works in various exhibitions across the country but for the first time, they are being exhibited in Bharat Bhavan. I have never taken formal training in painting. But I am inspired from Rajasthani miniature paintings. All my acrylic works are simplification of drawing works,” said Anand who is associated with this field for past 45 years.
The exhibition will be on view till July 19.
