"Vibrant and Charming!"

This painting is delightful, a great combination of traditional form and colors and modern, geometrical composition. I love the parrots expression and the checkerboard-bird background.

She is viewed as an authority in the field and has trained dozens of aspiring artists in this ancient style, many of whom are now able to earn a living through the practice of this art. In her own paintings, Bharti brings a contemporary intellectual edge to this ancient Indian folk art. She has received numerous awards for her paintings but the one she treasures most is the National Award for Excellence in Handicrafts, also known as the President's Award - it was her long-held dream to receive it.
