I am a fabric collage artist based in Vienna, Virginia, born in Calcutta, India.
From early childhood, I began sketching with pencil and pastels. My life-long passion for art was born when I witnessed my cousin’s creation of beautiful portraits with what was then thought to be primitive materials: charcoal, rice starch, and ash. I began to view the grace with which horses and dancers moved, and my artist’s eye captured their grace in my own sketches.
