Biography
I am an artist working in Mumbai for many years. I have had a couple of solo shows and participated in many group shows, in Mumbai, Hyderabad, Delhi and Indonesia. I have earned my master’s degree in fine arts.
My early works were mostly landscapes, still lives and floral representations on mostly canvas. Later my style changed towards figurative, incorporated with print and more recently design. The figures mostly display feelings of passion, peace, joy and sensuality. I have experimented and practiced different techniques and mediums like oil, acrylics, watercolours and tempera. I have been greatly influenced by Matisse, Van Gogh and Paul Gaugin and more recently Robert Kushner’s collage works .Love for poetry and form drove me towards William Blake’s etchings.
My aim is to produce a natural appeal in my work, where the human form is in the prominence, while working in a contemporary figurative style predominantly layered with print and design. My work is made up of multiple layers of colour with impressions of print.
