ARTIST STATEMENT
Painting, is my view, is an evocative expression of the inner vision of an Artist influenced by the environment. When the creative bug bites, it awakes the inner urge which never allow me to be complacent. Unknown frontiers of form, colour and line emerge for giving the work a unique shape/form. Taking the subject, probing it thoroughly, merging human values, goes with the process of creation. As a self taught Artist, I have been painting since my child hood in different media expressing myself what I saw and experienced.
