Daily News on Segar


An Impressionist; a Romantic; a stroker of cubism; a believer in classicism and they all roll with passionate force and become Segar, the peer of all great expectations in the world of art. He is an icon painter who invented his own style of drawing. He pays tribute to the beauty of Asian women and everything his eyes behold ... from nature to religion... from life to eternity. They are all captured in the fury of colour and moist, sometimes based on line and square but not particularly in cubism but which I find in many of his paintings. Segar is rightfully a different artist, someone Sri Lanka is immensely proud of.
