36. Mr. S Ilayaraja is a young emerging
artist from Tamil Nadu, Southern India.
He paint realistic figures where light
and shades play a significant role. To me,
His works resembles the legendary
Indian painter Raja Ravi Varma. Born on
19th April, 1979, he completed Masters
degree in painting from Govt College of
Fine Arts, Chennai. He is specialized in
Oil Paintings, Water Color Paintings,
Acrylic Paintings, Photography etc. In
2009 he participated in one man show
called 'Dravidian Women' presented by
Mrs. Dhanlakshmi Fordyce in association
with Abstract art gallery which brought
him a lot of name and fame. Tamil
Weekly "Ananda Vikatan" played a great
role in introducing him to common man.
Some of his works are shown below.
Hope you will like them and enjoy :)
