Here is a gallery with a small selection of Briscoe's Indian paintings.
He studied all the fundamental techniques for Indian miniature painting
under the guidance of Ram Krishna Sharma in the beautiful lake city of
Udaipur, northern India.
Since then he has developed techniques for working on large scale
Indian paintings while trying to maintain the magnificent translucence
found in Indian miniatures, especially those painted on
ivory.
With many of these compositions he introduces an aged look to the paint
surface to the extent that some of them have actual cracks running
throughout the work, the objective here being to give them added beauty
rather than to merely make them look antique.
