3. Shanti Panchal: Window of the Soul

Artist Shanti Panchal presents a selection of his latest works, in watercolour. The paintings are created slowly and meditatively, over a long period, on thick, textured paper which, through sturdy application and scraping, soaks up the pigment. Colour is loaded onto the surface, building up wash upon wash, and colours are mixed there, rather than on a palette. This method gives the colours fresco-like depth and intensity and there is a contemplative stillness and tranquillity about the painting. Paint does not simply sit on the surface but permeates the entire thickness of the paper and becomes a vibrant part of it.
The Gallery, Harrow Arts Centre, Uxbridge Road, Hatch End, from Wednesday, June 4 until Sunday, June 29. Details: harrowarts.com, 020 8416 8989
