Having lived in the area for over two decades The Many Moods of the Northwest is a series of canvases inspired by the majestic beauty of the Pacific Northwest and the glorious hues that surrounds us through the different seasons. These paintings are all about nature. Whether it's an inspirational thought, an abstract vision or personal and cultural experiences, my expansive canvases embody and depict a heightened expression of my thoughts. I haven't set out to produce art about one subject or another. My paintings evolve from the environment I find myself in. I believe that in realistic art the language is spoken on the painting. In abstract art, there is no language - it's what you want to make it to be. The process is the same, the understanding - different. Often, I look at my work in progress and take away whatever experiences I feel at that time. Chances are, that on returning I would interpret the same work into a different language - more related to my feelings at that exact moment. When I paint, I feel compelled to create and transcend simple objective representations. I try to identify, assemble, reconstruct and amplify the essence of each scene thus enabling mental imagery. My style is largely assisted by the use of unconventional tools that help me build and mold my images to recreate my vision on canvas. This particular painting is framed with a conventional shadow box black frame that allows the painting to stand out. The size of the entire framed painting is 32" x 50"

I am driven by my passion to interpret and draw out the unique beauty of natural elements and emotions that surround us. I was born in Mumbai, India, where I spent my formative years and graduated after 5 years at University, with a degree in Art from Sir J.J. Institute of Applied Arts. I specialized in advertising and pursued a career in the same, working as a visual artist for the next 8 years in leading advertising agencies both in Mumbai and Bangalore, India. After moving to Seattle WA, US, I took a break from work, and in 2005 resurfaced with a fresh perspective, picking up my paint brushes. I had a strong desire to return back to the very reason I joined art school - to paint. This was a period of experimentation and artistic communication with my canvas since I felt so out of touch. During the first few years, I worked on numerous thoughts and struggled to create a style that excited and spoke to me. In art college I had studied oils as a medium on canvas but graduated to self teaching with acrylic paints. It excited me to use that medium in similar ways (as I would use oil paints), dense and textured. I am a product of my environment and am sensitive to what I visually see and feel around me. Passionate about the city that I am born and brought up in and the city that I currently live in, I expressed everything I saw in my natural surroundings, felt and experienced around me. That passion and love is what I have brought out on my canvases. My travels have also informed and shaped much of what I do and in return, I bring a new point of view and an invigorated energy to my canvas. I am especially drawn to works of Gerhard Richter, and in the recent years I have used these strong influences and blended them with modern and refreshing nuances to develop bright, expressive pieces of canvas art. In the recent years I have been commissioned specially sized extra large canvases by clients around the world.
