I am most interested in small everyday moments often missed or seemingly unimportant compared to the social and headline grabbing events of the world. Inspiration - I derive my inspiration from nature. As I watch a certain scene, the experience of its beauty takes me to nothingness. Then I try to express my experience through my painting. This experience inspires me. The great thinker, the artist and the Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore says, “By plucking her petals, you do not gather the beauty of the flower”. It only means, the experience of beauty is whole and not in parts.
