This explosion of colors in the form of a bevy of beauties can light up an entire suite. In flamboyant choli-meets-Flamenco skirt outfits the divas are about to engage in throes of Garba dance. The splashes of color devoid of detailed shading anticipate that motion blur making lending this static frame a cinematic quality. In the facial archetypes they represent all corners of India bringing to mind the famed Galaxy of Musicians by Raja Ravi Varma. A patient viewing of the lines of sights of each of them will reveal another secret of this painting none of them are looking at any other. Since as viewers our eyes unknowingly follow the lines of sight of painted eyes none of those lines overlapping creates another layer of restless visual energy on the painted surface.
