"The day I started Painting, honestly, I did not have this in my mind. Art has its own sound- I let it speak through my strokes. As I reflect to the process of making this painting"
I am deeply inspired from nature's creation. So I use different colours, shapes, forms, shades which are basic foundation of any natural existence.I precisely look for shades when I paint on canvas to express my feelings and emotions.In my paintings colour is the most beginning factor which I look for. I use light and dark shades of colour. these Colours flow like waves in a sea or fountain in mountains.I observed the different aspects of seasonal changes in my life.I express my feelings and thoughts through my paintings in abstract for.
I prefer to paint my work in mediums such as oil colour or acrylic painting.
