He studied at the Indian College of Art in Calcutta and has participated in over 50 solo exhibitions and group shows in India as well as in abroad.

His work often depicts owls, cats, crows and other creatures from the animal kingdom drawn using mediums ranging from charcoal to chalk.

I hope you too enjoy Subhaprasanna's amazing artwork as much as I did. I love the sleeping owl in the second last image. If you have a favorite then please share by leaving a comment below, I'll love to know :)
Have a wonderful weekend. I'll see you on Monday. Until then you can join me on Facebook, if you like.

I like the sleeping owl too, along with the crow(?) and egg in the last.
You have a wonderful weekend too!
Wonderful! I have three favorites (the first owl, the fish, and the crow). Thanks for sharing his work with us!
@ Iris That crow is spectacular! It looks like a mamma crow with the egg :)
@ Tabatha The colors in all those three paintings are just gorgeous. Thanks for stopping by :)
As an artist myself I really appreciated these images. I'm taking my paint box and paper on our camping trip and hope to do some creating there.
((hugs)), Teresa :-)
@ Teresa Yay! That's great! Have an awesome time :)
