Playing with colors has been a great love for me since early childhood. I like to roam about in my own world. Searching everyone through my paintings, searching for their pain, feeling their love.

I always try to simplify the images which loom over my inner world with lines, colors and textures and give life to them. I used to draw black & white drawings. The black colour is my favorite because it has great depth in it and its ability to express thought and feelings is infinite. In my painting, I try to portray my expression in life those humble moments when you miss your heartbeat for once. Those thills, in real and sometimes in abstract forms. I assess myself through my own paintings and drawings and experiment with the sensitiveness of its line, it's examining the significance of each character, single or multifaceted. There is neither story nor narration in my paintings. Only the offline and fountains of colors textures and forms.

There you will get the privileged to find my own picture molded to some of my own forms. I used my colors, textures, and lines just as I choose, I feel. It is my delight, it's my ecstasy. I try to present in a symbolic way the aloneness that is inherent in everybody fighting to make it free. My painting is my biography, my identity and the inner perfection of my mind and soul. I always find others' maps of mind in my art.
