Crowded Beaches
Crowded Beach: I thought of painting this after visiting Galveston, TX beach. We were shot of time and everyone advised us not to go here but we went anyway. Only after getting here, I found that it was good to visit and see how this city has been commercialized. I have decided to donate a percentage of this artwork to the NGO supporting cleaning of Texas beaches.

Accessories
Accessories: After visiting Nepal, India, Mexico and few other places, I found that new money is coming in and the newly rich are afraid of loosing it and their life. They have amassed wealth in a hurry and along with it are amassing maids, guards as well. I have seen guards stand out on their gates whole day just like a car.....few more accessories!!! This deeply saddened me. I dedicated this series to my thought.

Painting Philosophy: I see painting as a strong medium to say what I want. I think of events and characters like a maze that come together at certain places and certain moments to form an eye catching, attention grabbing event. This event, if matched by my emotion, is put on the canvas.
Painting Style: Since some of my paintings are based on observations, I specialize in modern and contemporary artwork. I am very intrigued by Mosaics. Many of my existing and upcoming paintings will include abstract, symbolism, figurative, landscape and fine arts.
Favorite Medium: I like working with Acrylics and Oil paints. I am good at sketches as well but have kept those for myself (not for sale, I am too attached to details that I bring out in sketches)
