ARTIST’S STATEMENT

As a self-taught artist, my journey has been one of exploration, intuition, and constant learning. I have embraced experimentation, allowing my creativity to develop organically. My practice is driven by curiosity—discovering techniques, textures, and color combinations.

I have developed a unique artistic voice, blending acrylics and mixed media to create landscapes and abstract compositions. Every piece is a reflection of my personal perspective, shaped by observation, emotion, and a deep connection to the world around me.
Alongside contemporary expressions, I draw deep inspiration from traditional Indian art, which is rich in symbolism, intricate patterns, and storytelling. The vibrant colors, rhythmic compositions, and spiritual essence of Indian folk and classical art forms influence my work, subtly weaving heritage into modern interpretations.
