DESCRIPTION
I got a rose, its petals were bright and full of life.
I put it in a vase and watched it day by day, loosing its petals in the dim light.
As the colors went pale and the bud opened up, suddenly it hit me,
Life is a dream… What if I never wake up?
 
BIOGRAPHY
I spent the first years of my life in a completely different culture far from mine. My childhood years were thus spent in the colorful environment of India, in acceptance and spiritual freedom.
Experiencing this contrast between cultures opened my mind, and I believe I am inspired by that when I create. Contrast is, what brings a painting to life, therefore it should connect us instead of separating us.
As an adult, I started creating self-taughtly. My favorite technique is using oil paint on canvas.
Working with oil paint absolutely aligns with my lifestyle and personality. I love living in the moment and giving time to the things that really matter to me. The topics that concern me are my own visions, dreams, and thoughts, but somehow, they revolve around nature and universal values—values that unify us as humanity.
Connection is something of a high value to me, therefore what drives me are those moments when people look at my paintings and say: ’I know this story.’ Then I know we are connected.
