Santorini Windmill - Oil Painting by Derek Rickwood
Profull Gupta was born in India. His formal art education was in India and Canada. He has been an educator and designer for thirty years. Profull paints in Watercolor, Oil and Pastel.
As he mentions: “I have been painting and drawing since the age of five and have not stopped. Art has defined my life. I paint nature on location in watercolor, which is emotional and inspiring. Colors and shapes and moods in landscapes intrigue me.
Art may be in the eye of the beholder; however, I feel that the artist must transcend from being purely technical to being an ‘artist’. Every location has given me the opportunity to study the architecture, foliage and places of historical importance. This has enriched me not only as an artist but also as a human being.”
