Paban is an outstanding human being who is creative, intelligent, articulate and possesses enormous energy and devotion to his art, whether it is music or painting.

He works on another plane and his images are formed with freedom and breathe freshness, vitality and vigor. In simple painterly means he definitely orchestrates in plastic means, strength and vividness, giving interior life to each.

He would perhaps agree with me that we have to learn rather than be taught, and the very different worlds in which he has exercised his activities, from Paris to India, have not only been invaluable to those who have worked with him, but also to himself.
