Pyne's works carry a soft, melancholic tinge in them, mirroring the artist's introspective and quiet understanding of the world. This understanding germinates from the death and grief he experienced as a child. However, "Ganesh Pyne is not an artist of despair. Instead, he offers us a glimpse into ourselves through his vision for which he needed an unconventional space….Pyne offers a focused view, free from any make-believe depth.

An artistic form is a graphical rendition of the emotive thinking of an individual. As such, Pyne's forms are encapsulated gestures of his emotive thinking and his unique visualizing capacity." (Sovon Som, "Ganesh Pyne and his Enchanted Space", An Enchanted Space: The Private World of Ganesh Pyne, Centre of International Modern Art, Kolkata, 2006).
