Siddharth Katragadda is acclaimed for his Abstract Portraits of Indian women. He was born in the Bangalore, India, where he lived the first twenty three years of his life, and currently lives in San Diego. He has been painting since he was ten. He believes that an artist's primary objective should be to capture a culture – and that a culture, or ethnicity, can be best understood through its women. He paints colorful and elaborately dressed, voluptuous, dark Indian women, paying equal attention to their omnipresent bindis and resplendent ornaments as he does to their draped saris and brilliant blouses. His portraits are as abstract as they are figurative. He tends to abstract away from facial features, and lays more emphasis on the way a culture has sculpted the woman as a whole, especially the colors, which are depicted in brightest of colors - reds, saffrons and yellows – the most essential Indian colors. His paintings have been featured at Chitra Kala Parishath, Kalarasa Gallery (Bangalore), Art Walk (San Diego), IndianArtCollectors.com, Mixture ShowRoom (San Diego), Paintings Etc (Singapore), Chlorophyll (Chandigarh) and IndianPainters.net. One of his paintings was acquired by Mani Ratnam. His paintings are collected worldwide
