an oil painting on canvas by the painter TM Davy depicts the writer Shiv Kotecha. The painting is cropped tightly to the shoulders and from the chest up. In the painting, Shiv is wearing a read sleeveless shirt, small silver hoops, and narrow rectangular black sunglasses. Behind is loose, gestural greenery in broad daubs of paint that radiate outward directionally.
