“The subject matter of my work is drawn from my own life experiences, trips, thoughts and surroundings. Being from India, a country with an extremely rich heritage of Art and Culture, I have always had a deep rooted attachment to traditional art forms of India and owe some of my stylization to the captivating traditional patterns and the rich array of colors. Adapting to Western Styles and techniques, combining them with my lifelong fascination for ethnic arts around the world, have all been a melting pot for me to create this multicultural ‘canvas’.”
