Since academically trained in Fine arts, my painting style has been progressing and becoming more spontaneous and free. My art is the journey which will continue to move on till I exist and I will keep exploring the world further through the eyes of various forms, which give me the visual language to my inner self. To draw nature, from the first mark to the flow of pigments till the final composition on paper, involves many steps of unveiling secrets. Whether it is realistic still life or non-objective; the fast, expressive and fluid watercolors give freedom to my emotions to flow on paper and serve me both as meditative and narrative.
