Prafull Sawant – Light and shadow in watercolor (indoor)
Wir freuen uns, den international bekannten realistischen Künstler im Bereich Aquarell, Prafull Sawant, auch 2025 bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen.
Im Folgenden zitiere ich einfach einmal Daniel Smith, deren Markenbotschafter Prafull ist:
Prafull Sawant gilt seit langem als einer der bedeutendsten realistischen Künstler der Welt. Er ist vor allem für seine atmosphärischen Landschaften im Freien bekannt, die das Licht einfangen, um die Stimmung und den Raum der Szene zu schaffen. Er ist weltweit sehr gefragt – er hat über 20 verschiedene Länder besucht, um Demonstrationen, Workshops, Vorträge und Ausstellungen durchzuführen.
Er hatte 15 Einzelausstellungen und über 100 internationale Ausstellungen auf Einladung, mit 45 Auszeichnungen und Stipendien auf nationaler und staatlicher Ebene. Er war der erste Künstler aus Indien, der den Preis der 148. Internationalen Ausstellung der American Watercolour Society in New York gewann.
Prafulls Werke wurden in beliebten internationalen Aquarellzeitschriften und -büchern vorgestellt, darunter Aquarell-Künstler und ArtLife.
