STYLE
Laxma Gaud is a versatile printmaker and painter.
A master draughtsman, the artist has worked in a variety
of mediums - etching, gouache, pastel and grass paintings.
He interpreted childhood memories of rural and tribal
vivacity through a sophisticated urban grid in which
surreal, libidinal tones mingled with fantasy and poetry.
Incisiveness, hatched lines and a keen eye for detail
have been his particular forte. Naturally, pencil drawings
and graphic works became his chosen medium, the monochromatic
austerity being an individual statement.
TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Head & Teacher, Sarojini Naidu School of Performing
Art, Fine Art & Communication, University of Hyderabad.
