I’ve been painting for over fifty years now, ever since my early days studying Applied Arts at the Bandra School of Art, where I learned to translate feeling into form. I come from a family of artists, so creativity has always been woven into my life. Nature is my greatest muse-the light on leaves, the rhythm of waves, the quiet details that most people pass by. Among all of nature’s wonders, I especially love painting birds-their colors, their grace, the life in their tiny eyes. I’m drawn to realism and intricate detailing, taking my time to capture each subtle texture and tone. For me, painting isn’t just a passion-it’s meditation, a space where I find peace, focus, and a deep sense of presence.
