Bhopal-based painter Shuchi Muley has painted scenes for the just-released Hollywood film Loving Vincent, based on the life of artist Vincent van Gogh. Each of the film’s 56,800 frames is an oil painting on canvas.

The film required 5 months of work from Muley and other artists who painted the frames of the film as individual paintings. Muley painted close to 400 paintings for the project and is one of two Indian artists to be part of this international venture.
