Chandru Hiremath (b. 1980) completed his B.F.A. and M.F.A. from Vijay College of Fine Arts, Dharwad (2004, 2006). Raised in an agrarian setting, he grew close to nature at a young age and drew deep inspiration from the rustic way of rural life. The works show layers of leaves and flowers to create a pleasing perspective, along with ample textures that give the work both depth and character. Hiremath has participated in many shows across South India and gained popular acclaim for his works.
