I have
always been intrigued by the dynamics and complexities of mother nature and human relationships. From
questioning various forms of expressing them to articulating my thoughts
better, (as to what I believe is relevant at a point of time) it has been a
constant process of learning. Initially I started off with verbal mediums like
debates, extempore etc, then moved onto poetry writing and pencil sketching. Equipped
with a pencil and my humble strokes, sketching taught me how to express emotions with
just shades of black and white.
My quest
to qualitatively articulate my thoughts has further lead me into the world of
mixed media, oil and acrylic paintings. Different brush strokes, the range of colour
shades available and the freedom to mix
and match them has given me a larger arena to shape my ideas and colour their moods. Any form of learning is a humbling experience and I am not an
exception to it. Over the last four years I have attempted to express myself through the paintings I chose to do. I have also tried to bring my cultural roots and
areas of interest onto the canvas that I have created. Each brush stroke has
been a defining moment, a learning.
