Biography
Shishir Bhatt is a self-taught Indian artist born in 1965 in Jaipur. He began as a miniature artist and became known for meticulous detail. Saffronart notes that he worked as a full-time painter from 1980.
His paintings transform everyday objects into unreal or mythic images. In later ink drawings, human forms are combined with architecture, animals, and text, often on handmade paper.
