Some might mistake me to be a very religious person when in fact I am not religious at all! Though I do believe in the philosophy of the Vedas and that god is one and his names are many, It’s mainly patriotism that has driven me and also concern regarding that so many are ignorant about the beautiful stories this ancient culture has to offer. I used to love watching television shows based on Indian mythology when I was small.
I already had love for Indian mythology since I was a kid when I used to listen to the stories of the battle between gods and demons. I just finished reading the Mahabharata recently and I am trying to paint each and every character (at least the major ones) the way they are described in the text… not sure if that can be considered a project But then again it doesn’t mean that I’ll advise everyone to leave college, it completely depends from person to person. In fact this decision helped me start my career early and it’s going pretty well for me.
I realized that college wasn’t meant for me so I decided not to go to a college at all I never really wanted a degree either. I joined some computer courses in private institutions but i left in the second week itself. I completed Bachelors in Computer Application. So it was completely against my principles, plus the professors seemed to be very frustrated and uptight. I always felt art is something that should be done with complete freedom. I'm greatest fan of Anirudh Sainath (Molee) and Raja Ravivarma.
I wasn’t the best student in my class LOL! In fact I never liked anything else other than painting, reading comics and playing video games. Drawing was my passion since I was a kid and I barely took any interest in school studies. I am self-taught and I didn’t go to any art school as such. I started drawing when I was around three years old. I am a freelance artist and I was born and raised in Bengaluru.
