Reema Bansal , Indian Painter"I have tried to capture the intensity of nature in `Nature at Play`, which is one extreme, while my painting `Grandpa!` speaks of the innocence of a child. The colours I have used are bold and the brush, I feel, doesn`t limit me; it in fact lets me express myself freely. It made me believe in the power of art more than ever before"----as said by Reema Bansal. Reema Bansal is an Indian born painter. Reema Bansal took up painting at the tender age of three.
