Natvar Bhavsar

WAM currently has a whole room dedicated to Natvar Bhavsar. (I think the museum owns at least 6 of his works.) Though I had never heard of him until this exhibit, I immediately felt at home the first time I walked into the small room dominated by his colorful, ethereal canvases. 

And though his paintings remind me to like my own painting Grotesque Ethereal even more, his paintings also inspire me to do more with less. (I'm sure this will show up in the coming paintings.) 
 
The special exhibit ends Oct 5. (BTW, The current glass exhibit and the recently rotated permanent collection are fantastic, too. Pay for a great half-day of moving entertainment or go on Free Saturdays.)
