Artist Statement :

I am an engineer by profession, but creating art has always been the activity that I enjoy the most. I am a self-taught student of art and have been pursuing graphite pencil sketching since class 8 in school.

Since then I have diversified into the media of charcoal pencils and soft pastels. I enjoy portraying the natural world, particularly wildlife, and also like making portraits of personalities I admire. Recently I have tried my hand at a few landscapes.

I hope to continue improving and endeavor to create fulfilling works of art.

Education :

• MSE, Mechanical Engineering, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, USA
