I am an ancient being on this planet where I have come and gone countless times.

Born in Nepal and live in Denmark.

My Paintings are the expression of my life; the life that is unknowable but have had some glimpse of it.

Have visited many countries, seen countless people, done different jobs, and studied a variety of subjects; been to college and attended university in business and finance coming from a science background; but had an interest in the unknown beyond this world. It became more profound when my brother died in an accident in his 30s. Then I wanted to know Death. That led me to study and listen to thousands of hours of religious scriptures like Bhagvat Gita, Bible, Vedas, Upanisads, buddha´s teachings, etc., and have been to temples, churches, monasteries, and gurudwara.
Have walked up several hills and come down to their valleys in Nepal and crossed several rivers. I have dived in those rivers and have caught fish; have been inside the deep and dark cave of foxes and jackals and lost in the forest; played with the mud and dried myself in the sunshine looking at the white Himalayas; the gateway to the seven heavens and seven hells; where angels danced and demons from the hell came up to see the moves of the angels...

I came to a belief that one should not educate oneself to make art because art is the expression of your life; life itself is enough education and the world is the stage where you learn about life. So, I just take a canvas and colors and express my life with the help of a brush.

But I have a Bachelor's degree in Business and Finance. I attended a year in Master's degree but I dropped out.

My only Exhibition to this date is my home where I display my paintings to my wife and son. Sometimes my friends come by and see it and most of the time I whisper to angels from above the Himalayas to dance over my finished canvas and they love it..😀
