Born in 1971, Udaipur Rajasthan. Sushil completed his Bachelors in Fine Arts in painting from the Rajasthan School of Arts and his Masters from the MLS university, Udaipur, and a PhD from MLS university.
In his own words, “If someone asks me about my paintings, I would like to say that by some gravitational force, I am forced to move from picture to object from object to nature. I extend within myself. I do not wish to come out of this private surrounding. I enjoy intensely remaining in it I am always eager to discover my inner self. It is a search, a never-ending story in itself. my paintings exhibit exiting and emotional set of events developing beyond the canvas. I layer my world (the time, state or scene of human existence) without any adornments, I like a miniaturist, investigate and research into the secret, unknown and inexplicable mystery & human soul. My style, my manner is gracefully natural and unrestrained I love to play with bright cheerful colures on varied textures.”
