It was a hectic Saturday afternoon in 2011 at Prabhadevi, Mumbai in Shri Akbar Padamsee’s Studio. We were tired working from early morning getting serigraphs signed and looking at Padamsee’s new collection. There were certain abstract works that he was working on. I had this privilege to understand the process behind his abstraction. How he mixes colours, what brushes he uses, what amount of oil is to be mixed and how the monochromatic colours can be applied. To be there in an artist’s studio is amazing but to be in a legend’s studio is only possible when you are ‘The Lucky One’.
