"AT LAST.....THE BEGINNING"
the day when i first thought of lines,
the day when i first thought of shapes;
a sunny afternoon when i first drew a face,
a crying girl who wanted to tell her tale;
long many years back when i first thought of life and death,
i saw the charred remains on the deserted plains;
a horse with a broken leg,
trying to walk just a single step;
to reach within a garbage bag,
that icy afternoon, in front of my gate;
that bull trying to pull his weight,
the lines of that harness, trying to cut his neck;
that moss green eyes in front of me,
making me wonder about its heritage;
all the while i tried to comprehend,
the harsh truths of life and its pace;
when i started to learn the happiness,
i saw the beauty in that hideous place;
i saw him with her on a mare,
wind and sun shine blowing on their face;
i saw her swinging under a tree, near a lake,
her mother cooking nearby, and sang;
i saw him for the first time in my life then,
and i thanked god for making me what i was then;
i felt a tide of happiness in a moment,
and a fierce stab of pain in the next;
i had lost him once in a dream, and,
i lost him than, once, all over again;
when i woke on those tormented nights,
running towards him, and the safety of his face;
i tried to draw him with no success,
in my thoughts there always was a faceless face;
i wanted to draw all that , but never with a pen,
i created in my mind the world of lines and shapes;
colors started to seep in, them,
making them more vivid and fact;
with those blended boundaries about them,
they drew me to distraction and unrest;
after so many long years of quest,
again, a sunny afternoon, AT LAST;
at last, i find paint brush in my hands,
the beginning of a journey, towards realizing that face!!

I am a self taught artist and painter. I was born on 20th Nov. 1979. I inherited my love for art, ayurveda and yoga from my father. I am fascinated by astrology and palmistry too. I completed my Bachelor of Electrical Engineering and have worked as an Engineer.
Because I always liked art and science both. I went to Graduation College for B. E. and not for Fine Arts. I thought I could always practice arts without formal education and then there was never enough time for painting while studying and job for I wanted to do so much in the arts, painting, sculpting, photography, music and poetry. I think I am greedy.
Although, I started sketching at the age of 11 And I tried my first stroke of oil at the age of 17, my real journey in the realm of art started one and half year back, in 2006, i started as a freelance and practicing artist, i think it was a right decision, i feel more complete now. satisfied with my life.
I paint from the depth of my heart and my canvasses comes from one of my passionate encounters with the process of creation, soul searching, feeling and thinking (which I had throughout my life till date) or and either from my craving for the bliss I find in painting.
Although I experiment a lot I do not have a specific style, my style is my thoughts and my desire to give something to the viewer. And so there is never any regularity of style in my work. My canvasses do have different lighting effects, strokes and colors depending upon my feelings or mostly subjects, for I paint to satisfy my soul's desire.
