I’m a professional artist and have been painting for more than 25 years. As an artist I paint in many mediums like Watercolour, Acrylics, Oils, Charcoal and Pastels. While I paint in many mediums, am completely in love with watercolour for the various qualities like freedom, spontaneity and the ability to keep surprising. I’m equally comfortable with painting various subjects like Landscapes, Cityscapes, Waterscapes, Portraits, Cartoons and Caricatures. I believe unlearning is an essential step to learn which is done by sharing my learning and experiences through Offline and Online Painting workshopsfor budding and Profeesional artists. In my creative journey, I have received notable recognitions in various competitions in India and abroad. I have been regularly exhibiting my works through Solo and Group exhibitions in India, Italy, UAE, Thailand and my paintings are in the collection of many private individuals in India and abroad.

About the Artwork :
Fall in love with Banaras -
This watercolor painting captures the beauty of the ancient Indian city Banaras (Varanasi) ghat with temples. The painitng feature one of the iconic ghats along the Ganges River, with its distinctive steps leading to the sacred waters. In the background, the temples with their beautiful shapes creates a striking and appealing pattern.
The colour palette, characteristic of watercolors, infuses the scene with soft and vibrant hues, with shades of blue for the Ganges River and warm earthy tones for the buildings and temples. To emphasize the spiritual significance of Banaras, the painting includes elements such as the mystic sadhus, pilgrims participating in rituals and priests conducting ceremonies on the ghat. The use of reflections on the water's surface and the interplay of light enhances the overall mood and atmosphere of the artwork.
Ultimately, the painting aims to convey the spiritual aura, architectural beauty, and timeless charm of Banaras, a city steeped in tradition and devotion along the banks of the Ganges.
