RECOGNITION
Artist featured in a collection
My artistic journey began in the vibrant streets of Udaipur, where my love for sketching and drawing became apparent early on. As a child, I would lose myself in the creative process, though life eventually steered me toward a more conventional path. After completing my Bachelor's degree, I pursued an MBA in finance and international business, following societal expectations. However, despite the corporate world I inhabited, my heart continually longed for art.
A pivotal moment arrived when I moved to Paris to pursue my Master’s in international business. Immersed in the city's rich artistic heritage, the galleries, exhibitions, and bohemian atmosphere rekindled my passion for art. It was in Paris that I felt my creativity truly come alive once again. My travels took me further to St. Petersburg, where an AIESEC internship allowed me to teach art techniques to Russian schoolchildren, further solidifying my artistic connection.
Upon returning to India, I made the bold decision to follow my true calling—art. Inspired by my experiences abroad, I embarked on an exploration of contemporary, abstract, and portrait art. Each of my works is a reflection of my personal journey, encapsulating life, love, and fleeting moments through a harmonious blend of simplicity and complexity.
