The onlooker can appreciate is the handling of the human figure where a linear contour efficiently interrelates with the delicate plasticity evoked in a translucence and partial opacity which Mr.Terdal focuses on.

Ramesh Terdal looks for patterns beyond the obvious self.

~Shilpa Romeles,

Ramesh Terdal transforms his perceptions of the Kannada culture, wants to be a tree: a visual tree among trees. Hefurther intensifies our intellectual grasp of reality: it strips life of the fortuitous to lay bare its essentials and permits us to experience them.

His name is Ramesh Terdal and art is in his blood. A free lance artist since 1995, his works speak through the metaphor of paintings on life and illusion, the given and factuality of existence and much more.

Hebbar art foundation which would help new artists. so, they’ve been having these contests regularly to spot and promote new artists and many of their artists have shot fame, Ramesh terdal to name one .

Reflective of the predominantly rural environment and setting he comes from. Terdal presents a consciously etched rustic mood and appearance in his work, Using deep brown colors and textures for the background, he tries to draw the viewer’s attention to the simple an restful ambience of the village life.

~Giridhar Khasnis,
art critic The Hindu 2005

Despite painting for over ten years, this Bangalore-based Artist is rather underrated despite his talent and skill, Ramesh’s works are quiet and introspective-the portraits of children are highly expressive and full of innocence. Rich textures and a rustic appeal characterize his works.

~Nalini.S.Malvia,
art critic ,Times of  India, 2007

Terdal has arrived at a contemporary take on his own modular contemporary representative work. Still working with similar strokes, but the urban and popular subject matter has led his brush towards a different exemplar. Unlike many of present-day artists who combine these themes with multi-media techniques, led of course by the overwhelming embrace of digital media, Terdal merely paints.

~Elizabeth Rogers,
art critic, Historian USA/New Delhi 2008

I have been watching his progress. Mr.Terdal is intelligent, hard working and very contemporary in his out look. I have no doubt to say that he will be one of the artists from Karnataka who will achieve an important position in the art world.
