I am based in Mullingar Co. Westmeath in Ireland. I was born in India.I came to Ireland in 1980 and settled here. I have been painting in oils for many years. I consider my artistic talent a gift because I never had any formal training. I was invited to be a member of Mullingar Art Guild , I exhibited and sold my paintings in their annual exhibitions. I did some private commissions as well.
To me painting encompasses so many aspects of life...intellect, colour, feelings, communication and much more. Sometimes evocative reflections of light on skin are the tools of my artistic language to express feelings whether sensuous, spiritual or playful.The subject matter in my paintings is as important as the visual quality of my work. I usually spend a month on a painting while working out every fine detail so that the end result is to my satisfaction. I strongly believe that my art compliments my sense of self.
