I am fascinated by how a location’s geography dictates its light and palette. To capture this 'color identity' with integrity, I prefer working on-site, where I can respond to the shifting atmosphere in real-time. My current body of work focuses on the landscapes and temple architectures of India, specifically Hampi. In this series, I bridge the gap between landscape painting and portraiture. By engaging with these temple sculptures through the intimate study of form and expression, I aim to portray the emotions within the stone. I find deep emotion in the weathered and fractured faces of these deities and figures, exploring how time and nature act upon these structures to create a new, hauntingly beautiful identity.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n          \n             \u003cp class=\"summary-artist-profile\"\u003eSanket specializes in the intersection of architectural history and light. His work is defined by a mastery of luminous realism, often using a \"golden hour\" palette to breathe life into ancient stone structures. Moving expertly between oils and watercolors, Sanket documents India's cultural heritage with technical precision and emotional depth. By integrating human figures into his scenes, he emphasizes that historical sites are not just monuments of the past, but living spaces that continue to inspire and connect with modern life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n            \u003ch4 class=\"sub-title-artist-profile\"\u003eEducation \u0026amp; Career\u003c\/h4\u003e\n            \u003cp class=\"summary-artist-profile\"\u003eB.F.A.
