Contemporary Artist / Business Entrepreneur
Sri Lanka
Sachith de Silva is
an experienced surface print designer for screen printing with over 25 years
history in the trade. He has studied print design fundamentals in Japan from 1989
to 1990. His way of expressing his response to these objects is through drawing
and painting includes Portrait, Figure, Still-life, Landscape.
The considered
setting up of a still life is a crucial part of his process. He generally
focuses on the objects themselves, how they relate to each other and the space
in which they sit. When painting he pursues the development of these
relationships through constant looking, contemplating, redrawing and color
adjusting.
In 2020 Sachith started painting on a daily basis from
life, mainly still life and figure painting. Currently he is a member of 2020
Group (Sri Lankan Representational Art) formed in 2020.
