From the Eyes of Dr Ajay Kumar Ojha : 

Narayan Acharya a Painter with Humanistic Vision

For Narayan Acharya " Creation is acquired and not learned. I acquired this from my mother who unfortunately left me when I was 7 years old. I remember it very clearly the pictures she used to draw on floors as Rangoli and the images of lord Ganesha. She never learned the art of creating pictures rather always use to say it is the Almighty, Nirakar who has given the power of forming different Akars (Shapes).

 He goes on to say" I use readymade colours, self prepared colours and as far the rechnique is concerned it is different all the times and may be termed as innovative technique but strongly feel that it is the supreme power who guides me in making such creations. I adore, enjoy and respect every piece of art made by an artist as a gift of God extended to them including me."

An exhibition of Paintings, Drawings & Graphics of  Narayan Acharya was inaugurated by Shri Atul Marwah, Director M.E.C Art Gallery New Delhi on Friday 23rd September 2016 at 5.30 pm in All India Fine Arts & Crafts Society at its Gallery 1 Rafi Marg, New Delhi.
