Vasudeo Hiralal Pandya (1896–1970) was an Indian artist born in 1896 in Lunawada, Gujarat. Initially a teacher, he moved to Bombay (now Mumbai) where he worked as a document copier. His artistic journey began as a hobby, and he created many notable works, including oil paintings and oleographs. His first significant work was a standing portrait of the Hindu deity Vishnu.
