Soul In Strokes

I am an artist deeply inspired by the beauty and spirit of nature. My paintings reflect moments of joy, peace, and wonder that the natural world offers in its colors, forms, and rhythms. Though self-taught, I have embraced this passion wholeheartedly since 2014, showcasing my work in exhibitions across India and earning recognition along the way. For me, art is not just about creating—it is about capturing emotions, preserving memories, and sharing the simple happiness that nature brings. After retiring from three decades of service, I rediscovered my passion for art. I immersed myself in the world of artists—visiting galleries, learning, and building friendships that shaped my creative journey. Soon, I began showcasing my work in exhibitions, where it was warmly received and recognized with awards. A highlight of this journey has been publishing a coffee table book of my artworks, a reflection of my love for nature and expression through colors.

My Philosophy

I see art as a journey of rediscovery—one that proves creativity has no age or boundaries. For me, painting is not just about colors on canvas; it is about capturing emotions, moments, and the beauty of nature that surrounds us. Every artwork is an attempt to preserve a memory, spark a thought, or create a sense of wonder. I believe that art connects hearts, tells stories without words, and allows us to relive the joy of simple, timeless experiences.

My Process

I began my artistic journey with watercolors, drawn to their fluidity and delicate charm. Over time, I shifted to acrylics, which now form the heart of my work. I love the vibrancy, versatility, and freedom they offer—allowing me to experiment with layers, textures, and bold expressions. Alongside painting, I also enjoy pencil sketching, which helps me sharpen my eye for detail and capture the essence of a subject in its purest form.

What Inspires Me

Nature, spirituality, and human emotions deeply influence my work. I am fascinated by the way light and shadow transform the simplest of moments into something profound and extraordinary. Whether it’s the serenity of a landscape, the quiet strength of human expression, or the play of sunlight on everyday life, these moments inspire me to translate feelings into colors and forms on canvas.
