My life as a professional started at the age of 18 when I started painting for decorating our new house, since then I am a creator of many amazing oil paintings in abstract & contemporary style to decorate the houses of art lovers.
Of all the naturalistic things, flowers bring sense of calm, serene beauty to the world and decided to champion them. I believe beauty of flowers cannot be appreciated enough in its lifetime, I decided to give them immortality. I was always inspired by the texture and color patterns of the flowers.
In my paintings, I visualize them as if they are blossoming to become immortal and capture tiny variations that sprouted itself on their own. I bring realism through renaissance and dutch old master’s techniques. Painting is like a meditation to me as I slowly try to achieve its realistic semblance through matching color patterns. I paint slowly using many layers building depth to finally see the delicate blooming petals. I can create incredible depth in detailing from myriad of natural patterns found in flowers. I do commission works on abstract paintings as well in addition to flowers (Oil/Acrylic medium) based on requests!
