Ramesh Pachpande, born in a village in Jalgaon District in Maharashtra displayed artistic talent at an early age;. Always focussing on the human form, Pachpande had first worked with Oil and canvas paintings in a realistic style, concentrating on charcoal Rajasthani themes, experimenting with different styles. He found complete fulfillment and satisfaction when he moved to the charcoal medium in which he displays rare excellence. Today, Ramesh Pachpande has developed a unique style of his own charcol on paper which highlights facial expressions and brings to the fore the sublime beauty of the human form. His paintings, a reflection of his rural roots,portrays the serene innocense, the charm and purity of the rural folk. The choice of chrcoal as a medium has been deliberately chosen by him.
