Over to an art dictionary- The Times of India
After ten years of meticulous research, artist Pratima Sheth has come up with an extensive all-inclusive dictionary on Indian art.

Ever found yourself grappling with the meaning of terms ‘aquarelle’ and didn’t know where to look the word up? After ten years of meticulous research, artist Pratima Sheth has come up with an extensive all-inclusive dictionary on Indian art.

This endeavour seeks to demystify some uncommon and often intimidating art terms, while at the same time giving an insight into the works of Indian artists.

“Art is something that speaks for itself and needs no explanation,” says Pratima, adding, “But very often arty jargon like ‘medium’, ’style’, ‘genre’ and ’school’ need a little clarification, especially for the lay man.”
