"I dream my painting and I paint my dream."
- Vincent Van Gogh

Painting came to me in the third decade of my life, after a series of adventures with academia and study of religions, facilitation, education, jewellery making and the traditional music of Baul from Bengal, India.

Vibrant experiences and voracious reading had already offered a diverse set of perspectives to my life, and yet, all of that came crashing down in a sudden tryst with depression. My colourful life turned grey, and I turned to colours.

When words were stunted and dreams shattered, Painting opened new horizons, broken boundaries healed, and I learned what it meant to place a part of me onto canvas with my fingers. That was about one year and three hundred paintings ago.

Life without paint is impossible for me now and I hope that the shards of my soul scattered around canvases can find good homes and good hearts.
