Understanding Colour Theory for Abstract Art
A practical guide to colour theory as applied to abstract painting — complementary colours, temperature and mood.
Delhi · India
Original paintings, limited prints & immersive workshops by Monika Shukla — Delhi's celebrated contemporary artist.
Delhi-based contemporary artist specialising in abstract, acrylic and mixed media works that capture the spirit of modern India.
Every piece begins with an emotion — a colour seen in sunset, a texture felt in a temple wall, a story that demands to be told visually.
Sketches, colour studies and material experiments bring the concept to life on paper before a single brushstroke hits the canvas.
Layers of acrylic, mixed media or gold leaf are built up slowly over days — sometimes weeks — each layer drying before the next is applied.
The final artwork is signed, documented, sealed with a UV-protective varnish and accompanied by a hand-signed certificate of authenticity.

The colors, texture, and artistic detailing add elegance and warmth to the room. It has become the highlight of our living area, and every guest admires it. Highly recommended for anyone looking for unique and expressive artwork. 🎨"
