Since 2007, Vilas\u00a0 Kulkarni along with Mr. Mulick they started holding workshop in watercolor for the beginners in this field. While participating in this activity few years, he got educated immensely. There came freeness in handling water colors and he got fairly acquainted with medium and it certainly reflected in his painting. From 2011 to till date, he has independently teaching basic and advance watercolour painting to his students at his studio. His students include a whole range of people from doctors to architects to IT professionals , amateur painters, house wives and art students. While learning painting in his class as they look, it is great stress buster or sort of meditation. While depicting nature, the play of light and shadow is his forte, bright lively, vibrant colors is a signature style of his paintings. Vilas says, \u201conce the paper gets mounted on essale, water, brushes and colours are around, my journey starts in the village scapes of costal area in India. Traditional clustered houses in konkan, the beaches, bullock-carts, old wadas are all symbolic of the rich culture and natural resources of our country. I walk through the brightness and shadows with my colours on the dusty roads, slant roofed houses and upright coconut trees \u2026the fantastic game of light and shadow demonstrated by nature always fascinates me. Shades of Green pull me into the nature and I get dissolved slowly into that\u201d. Companies like Thermax, Persistent, Institutions like Symbiosis, have organized his day long workshop for their employees, students. Corporate giants like Tata Motors have invited him to inaugurate the cultural functions and to preside over as a jury for employees\u2019 drawing competition.<\/p>\n
