Rural women often dominate Bharti's paintings. Role of the women and their bonding with the surrounding has been her constant source of inspiration and vocabulary. Rustic backdrops and earthy tones in her paintings get combined with ethnic emotions, bringing about a subtle rootedness in her expression. Her extensive travel to villages of India creates bonds beyond her practice. This connect keeps her abreast with transformations taking place in the milieu. The endeavour is to resurrect a repertoire of rural sensibilities, some of what is fast moving in oblivion. She peruses compositions myriad in colours, textures, and figures, evoking distinct emotions. Desert Song, Rhythms of Desert, Desert Dream and colours of sand were titles of Bharti's earlier shows that portrayed the vast landscape of the barren desert and the most colourful and creative people living in this environment. The mesmerising sand-scape with its changing shades provided a perfect backdrop for the people, cattle, mud houses and various earthy elements depicted so often in her work.Bharti's colour palette is dominated with earthy tones and rustic colours used effectively in elements in geometric compositions. Her paintings intrinsically weave elaborate patterns and designs in textiles, jewellery and the walls paintings. The sensibility of crafts, tradition and texture enlivens span of her canvas.

I am from rural area of India. I like village life very much. I am working as painter from past ten years. Being a painter is very important for me because i want expresses myself through this medium.

My work is a way of expressing myself to the world. I have a sense of belongingness to the rustic and pastoral Indian lands. Furthermore, I reckon that the woman is the most magnificent creation of god. I draw women in extremely simplistic ways, which is in fact contradictory to their power and potential. In my perspective, there can be nothing remotely enthralling as that of a village woman. Through my paintings, I seek to bring out their inner beauty and charm. Drawing women and the rural Indian lands serve me with immense pleasure and joy.
