Bhagat Singh completed his BFA from Jamia Milia Islamia, New Delhi (1990) and MFA from Jamia Milia Islamia, New Delhi (1992). He went on to do further courses at the Bhartiya Kala Nidhi, National Museum, New Delhi (1999) and India Art & Culture Course, National Museum, New Delhi (2000).

He is inspired by artist A. Ramachandran. He introduces stylisation in his rendering of forms and paintings of sky, ground and water. In his works, the impression of fantasy is also heightened with the slight exaggeration of forms. The white flowers that spring out of a giant bulbous calyx seem to have a magical presence. The floral forms seem to hover between reality and a dream-like vividness.
