POONAM CHANDRIKA TYAGI – Shattering all boundaries and female confines. She lends her subjects interesting lines achieving curvy forms, lusty eyes and pleasured expressions, which are a huge departure from all the societal norms for feminity. She speak a variety of emotions. The non-verbal communication she establishes through her subjects is downright bold and interesting. Her women are many things but not demure. http://meetingbenches.com/2016/10/poonam-chandrika-tyagi-indian-painter-shattering-boundaries-female-confines/
