Portfolio

Shashikant Bane, a devoted painter, belongs to Devrukh, Ratnagiri in Konkan. His childhood memories of the beauty of this region which is known as Parashuram - Bhumi, has created a nostalgia in his mind.

His art-education at Kolhapur and then in Mumbai brought maturity to his love of landscape paintings. The guidance of the master paintings of Kolhapur like Ganpatrao Wadangekar, R. S. Gosavi and Ravindra Mestry enhanced his watercolor rendering.


The beauty of the line and Indian style figure of Datta Parulekar in Bandra school of Art, Mumbai, added strength to his figurative compositions. His nostalgic memories of Konkan landscape, his tour to Rajasthan and his study of paintings of N. S. Bendre, the famous master colorist, resulted in the superb colour - orchestration and the indigenous quality of his paintings. The amalgams of the various experiences and experiments in the technical aspects and the presentation have brought a unique quality in his painting which attracts art lovers as well as the laymen.
