Most of the paintings have a nature-connect, whether it is a painting set in the effervescent city or one about the quiet countryside. "I love nature and it is my only inspiration.
My paintings on display are of landscapes and seascapes and that's how the name Magicscapes was coined," explains the artist.
Many of his paintings are set in Pune. "You will find areas like Sus Road, Lakdi Pul, Corporation Road, Atti village and FC Road in my paintings. I have Pune on canvas," reveals Songirkar.
Ravi has used watercolours and oil pastels as the medium.
