Painting is my Life!

If it moves, paint it
If it doesn’t move , paint it some more

I have lived by this for as long as i can remember.
and enjoyed bringing life to inanimate objects and walls  around the world, creating ambiance with special effects as well as highly detailed murals, and trompe-l’oeil.

I was born and brought up in London, and then spread my wings and travelled  far and wide. Landed in the crazy non-stop world of Japan, where i spent more than 2 decades of my life absorbing their culture and inspiring artists, designing and painting nightclubs, bars, restaurants and hotels.

I like to try my hand with different mediums and techniques. Be it oil, enamel or acrylics and different lighting effects.

After Japan I was drawn to India, where  i sailed into a new digital chapter of my life, and became the Creative Director of a multi award winning advertising agency in Bombay.

The transition from being covered in paint, from head to toe,- to a slick Apple desktop was at the time, most welcome, but I had to get back to my roots, and having my fill with digital art, it was time to express myslef on the medium that i now love the most, Canvas!

And here i am now after many years, still in India, settled personally and professionally.

My work on canvas is available, here on my website. I Hope you enjoy it as much as i enjoyed creating it. Please share if you do………..
