When the dragon breathes fire, all hell breaks loose. The devastating flames expelled from its mouth annihilate whatever crosses its path. It is this searing conflagration that is the subject of this artwork. When the molten broth inside the dragon’s gut cannot be contained anymore, it lights up and explodes to create a plume of fire and obnoxious fumes that wreak havoc mercilessly on their helpless victims. The torrential outburst of a livid human mind resembles this smoldering eruption. As the flames of fury build up inside the head, all reasoning and intellect are engulfed by them, and the foul poison that is released, sets free the most dreadful of all emotions - anger. The color palette includes shades of yellow, red and black to depict the simmering heat of the dragons breathe as well as of the violent temper inside the mind. While the yellow and red symbolize the fatal nature of the dragon, hence a destructive mentality, the black gives a glimpse of the catastrophic end…when all that is left is smoke, soot and vapor. The technique used for this artwork is called Flip Cup pouring, a layering of colors mixed with pouring medium and silicone in a single cup, which is flipped quickly in a swift motion onto the canvas and allowed to flow and spread with the help of a little tilting.

NEHA SINGH. A Fashion Designer by professional qualification and a self-taught artist who is passionate about innovating, I found my calling in art and decided to delve into the depths of this exquisite form of self-expression. Although I specialize in oil paints as a medium, my work also includes other media like acrylics, precisely the technique of acrylic pouring. I have been painting and creating original works of art from whatever inspires me at the spur of the moment. I like to experiment with different techniques of painting, with an aim to create texture in my art pieces, thereby giving them a three-dimensional effect. I am highly fascinated by colors, hence most of my artworks have a vibrant color palette. Apart from oils and acrylics, I do try my hand with dry mediums like chalk pastels, charcoal, and pencil color every once in a while. I have tried my level best to hone my skills and expand my horizons. It is my endeavor to produce unique works of art with a tactile feel, which are not only realistic in nature but also a visual and symbolic representation of the intangible.
