This area has been homes to many Kashmiri pandit artists including S.N.Bhat and Mohan Raina. He was aware of various forms of modern art especially Salvador Dalli’s surrealism, Pablo Picasso’s Cubism, expressionism, impressionism, Pop art and Abstract art; still he concentrated on landscape paintings of Kashmir. But his paintings are good examples of impressionism; they were unique in their own way. He has his different style of painting which is truly marvellous.
