Inspired and fascinated by art and nature since my early childhood days, I have always dreamt of being an artist. But as an IT graduate, I spent a large part of my career as an IT professional but always knew I had my calling in the field of art. Born and brought up in Udupi and currently based in Bangalore, I’m a self taught artist exploring various mediums, subjects and style. I work with all mediums like oil colors, acrylic, water colors, Pencil, Charcoal and digital medium. I also work with digital mediums for various design projects. I have worked on several projects for paintings for wall decor, conceptual art, wall paintings, and poster designing.

Focus Areas: Landscapes, Nature, etc.
