In his own words:

“Ritvik is a watercolor artist based out in Albany NY. After long hiatus from painting I have been painting regularly in watercolor since fall of 2014. Painting quickly over took my life and he has been painting regularly since then.

As a kid I was fascinated by impressionist painters of Europe and was drawn to Claude Monet and Pierre-August Renoir.Early on these masters inspired the love of landscape and people in paintings.

I mostly enjoy the challenge of producing a work of art with my brush strokes and watercolors on paper by looking at subject and slowly simplifying it to communicate my vision in a style that evokes a memory , engages the viewer while transcending the mood of subject in a loose style.

I consider myself mostly self taught . But I have personally studied with Alvaro Castagnet ,Charles Reid and Vladislev Yelislav”
