What mediums do you use?
I use acrylic colors with an immense love for bright "happy " colors . Colors reflects your moods so I call the bright hues the happy ones. I incorporate mixed media such as oil pastels, colored pencils, charcoal, graphite and collages yo my paintings. All these are my tools for markmaking on canvas and paper.
How long does it take for you to finish a painting?
It can take 1-2 days to finish a large painting and few hours for smaller.
Where do you get the inspiration for your work?
My inspiration is the colorful world around us, the changing seasons and the different cultures and food . My second love is travelling . My very recent works is my love for shapes and how different shapes can come together and reflect energy and life.
What kinds of subjects do you like to research?
I love to research the natural surrounding of light and shade . My desire to live in a forest, to experience the natural surrounding of its flora and fauna . I try to maintain sketches and smaller practice works on paper.
Do you have a “Dream Project” or a special goal set for the future?
"Dream Project" : I have many people requesting live demos and videos of paintings, which maybe possible in future .
Are there other artists in your family?
There are artists in my family like my late father and also my daughter .
Do you have any other interests or talents you would like to share with us? What jobs have you done held other than being an artist?
I have a Bachelor in Microbiology and Biochemistry from University of Bombay , I also have a Diploma in Interior Design .
From Canada I have a Diploma in Dental treatment and office management. Having worked for almost 7 yrs in the dental field I moved to IT technical recruiting and then to Director level managing a large global team and clients.
