The Little Voyager
Jaggu Prasad
Born in 1963, Jaggu Prasad is an Indian miniature painter renowned for his extraordinary precision and devotion to the art. Having started his artistic journey at the young age of 6, Jaggu Prasad, eventually learnt under the guidance of Padma Shree Kirpal Singh himself. As an artist Jaggu Prasad’s miniature creations invite the viewer to lean in. His uniquely realistic style, uses techniques like trompe l’oeil to give a hyper-real effect to his muse, nature. The microscopic brush strokes and intricate textures reward close inspection. Greatly insured by nature, in Prasad’s art you will find birds and insects are elevated from background motifs to central subjects—they occupy space with monumentality despite their size, their features rendered with a clarity that bridges observation and wonder. The result is miniature art that invites reflection, discovery, and appreciation of nature’s hidden architecture. As an independent artist, with decades of experience, his miniature paintings have reached both national and foreign exhibitions and galleries. Singapore, UK, Germany, France and the United States are just some of the places his works have featured in. For the minutest of details that give his work depth, he uses a single hair of an otter. His dedication to the craft and deep observation give a meaningful depth to all his artworks. If you want to have a painting where you can find depth in each stroke, artworks by Jaggu Prasad are exactly what you need.
Description
In 'The Little Voyager', Jaggu Prasad pays homage to one of nature’s quiet wanderers, the grey wagtail. The bird stands at the edge of a shallow brook, its slender frame balanced on a smooth stone, tail slightly raised as if ready for a hop. Around it, sprigs of wildflowers and soft meadow grasses rise in tender colour, their detail so precise they seem to sway in unseen air. There’s the sense of a fleeting visitor pausing just long enough to notice the world before it moves on. In this painting Prasad ji also differs slightly from his usual realistic style, giving it the otherworldy feel of adventerous scenes and fairytales, much in line with the title.
This delicate 18x24 inch artwork hand-painted with water colours on paper is perfect as an adornment on the walls of adventurous and wonderous kids' studies and rooms, nature lovers who appreciate surrealism, and collectors drawn to works that find beauty in quiet motion.
