My work is a spontaneous overflow, I work with paintbrushes and palette knives, I
like the figure to be visible, yet hidden behind layers of paints. A lot of the surface
is scratched off and then repainted on canvas.
I am deeply influenced by ancient Indian art found in caves, temples and palaces
reflecting the rich heritage of my country, India.
Lotuses are in my sub conscious mind they fascinate me with their symbolic
beauty and mythological significance.
