About the Artist

A. Murugesan

Born in Kunnathur, (Tirupur District), Tamilnadu, India, drawing was a passion for Murugesan ( aka Muru) from his schooldays. Even while doing his B.A., he completed a course in drawing from a reputed school in Chennai through correspondence course.

His professional life started as a lecturer in English in Tamil Nadu but after passing the Civil Services, he moved on to New Delhi to join the Ministry of Defence.

As he travelled to many countries, accompanying his wife on her diplomatic career, his early paintings show beautiful landscapes and natural splendor of Holland, Zambia and Ukraine and later ones that of the U.K., Germany and Suriname.

While living in the U.K. he had opportunities to participate in workshops conducted by famous watercolor masters like Francis Joe Dowden, Peter Woolley, David Curtis, Robert Brindley, Geoff Kersey, Tony Paul and Terry Harrison.

He is eternally fascinated by the wonders of nature and its riotous display of colours starting with the cloudy skies, blue seas and rivers and sailing boats, green trees and flowers that dot the horizons.

For almost two decades, he has dedicated himself to a passionate display of sensitive, subtle water colour creations!
