Priyanshu Dutt is a young law student who lives in Madhubani, Bihar. He started painting in 2012 and h is expertise liesin the contemporary Mithila or Madhubani Lokchitra style. He is committed to take the Madhubani painting tradition forward in his own unique way. Most of his artworks are inspired by farmers and Brick Chimneys close to his home. The color palettes he often uses in his work are red, orange and black. Madhubani Lokchitra is the human painting style where inspiration is taken from village scenes and t he sacred texts of Hindu mythologies. The coloring scheme here is of two styles - Kachni (hatching) where a limited color palette is adopted to fill the painting with delicate fine lines and Bharni (shading) where solid colors are used to shade and fill in the image. Earlier, artists from the Brahmin and Kayashth class represented this style, however, this distinction has now blurred and caste is no more a constraint for creativity.
