DINESH SONI Bhilwara, Rajasthan National Award 2019

Dinesh Soni a third-generation national award-winning artist hailing from Bhilwara, Rajasthan would say the same for Pichwai- how it isn’t something that comes naturally to an artist. For years he worked as a student, an apprentice, grinding daily at the studio over small details, only after grueling years of learning the art from his grandfather, the illustrious Badrilal Chitrakar, and his father, Prabhulal, did he gain expertise. Born in 1972, Dinesh Soni has three decades of experience in both practicing and imparting the art of Pichwai for which he was awarded the National Award in 2019. As a dedicated full-time Pichwai artist, he strives to uphold the authenticity of this ancient Indian art form and extend its knowledge to the upcoming generation of artists. He is currently operating from his studio in Bhilwara.
