I grew up in an environment where painting got priority over other forms of art. It is quite interesting to note the fact that my father is in textile design by occupation and weaver by choice without a sound knowledge in either history or painting could fill his place with works of not only popular artists but also the lesser known ones. I experienced all these through my life and learned a lot. This environment and support transformed my hobby into my profession. During my school and intermediate years, I was occupied only in activities related to painting and music. I won various prizes in spot painting and creative writing. The age of being different, yet creative has initiated me to the wonderful world of expression and freedom.
My paintings will differ from one another in color and technique. I feel that they are all unified in subject and emotion. I hope to capture the mood of my subject, Indian culture and colors that emphasize through composition, color and technique.
