    About the Artist

    I paint the places where light changes everything: a coastline at low tide, a valley after rain, the last minute of a sunset.

    Dhruv Shah is a California-based painter whose work moves between realist landscapes, seascapes and expressive abstraction, with figurative pieces drawn from Indian life and tradition.

    The same eye carries into digitally painted key art for film and music, including the posters for the Antarkatha short-film series, and into film itself. Under Dhruv Shah Art he produces short films, beginning with the award-winning Don't Remember Him Like This.
