Without the guru the knowledge remains half-gained. But there are those who take lessons from a guru who is physically not there to teach but leaves a strong imprint on the disciple's mind. Such gurus are conspicuous by their absence, in the works of those they inspire. The watercolours creations of nature and everyday life on the canvases of nilesh kharade, a solapur-born artist, come in that category. nilesh's works bear strong resemblance to vasudeo kamaths and thube sir's creations: Those lonely boats at the Hoogly ghats waiting for their owners to come back and sail them home, that girl lost in thought, gathering water lilies from the river, the vast riverside. nilesh s, "I started painting when I was in class II and I was greatly inspired by vasudeo kamathsir. That way they are my gurus. But I never tried to imitate them. It is just the devotion to them that invariably creeps into my works." nileshs differentiates his creations from sai collage on the grounds of his use of watercolour and wash technique, charcoal to highlight his subjects and a foggy effect to create mystery. His s figures are much inspired by kamath sir. nilesh is not just a painter but is a hope for setting the futuristic trends in realism and must play an important role in preserving the traditions in a situation where the imagination of artists is gradually being drained by impotency of technique and meaningless art. Probably this would be one of the causes of his popularity in the art world that has become a misguided and abused multitude. He lives and works in puna. “ तडपते दिल की सदा वो सुने या ना सुने, अपना तो फ़र्ज है के पुकारते रहे. “
