He was influenced by the Bengal School of Art and painted seductive portraits of women, landscapes and scenes from Indian mythology and history. He also worked for the rulers of Indian princely states on commissions and published his paintings in books such as The Art of S. G. Thakur Singh and Glimpses of India. He founded the Thakur Singh School of Art in Amritsar in 1931 and remained the president of the Indian Academy of Fine Arts till his death in 1976.
