Amogh Katyayan
Calgary, Alberta
I am a visual story teller.
My painting technique can be compared to the looking for images in the clouds. I begin with a blank canvas and as I layer on the initial coat of paint to create textures and colours, I start to see shapes and figures emerge from the paint. This is the foundation from which my paintings develop. With the freedom open-minded approach brings, my painting takes on a life of its own. From the images I initially see, my paintings take on stories, issues, and experiences to which others can relate.

After you finish something, always ask whether I could have done better!
