"I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way things I had no words for." - Georgia O' Keefe
Art has been a fascination for me since my childhood, I grew up appreciating this field of unbound expression.I connected with the world through a language derived out of my imagination and creativity. I found myself in a moment, a space of oneness, attuned to the inner voice that resulted in eternal bliss. I started to realise gradually that 'this was my calling' and this is where I belong.
I pursued art academically and graduated in Fine Arts from Chitra Kala Parishad in 2003, this gave me access to tools and techniques that I could use to portray my thoughts, not just to create an image but to create experiences.

Anchored in this process of 'Experiential Art', as a soft skill trainer I engaged myself in mindfulness exercises that helped me access my inner self, facilitate creativity and foster focus. The act of painting then slowly converted itself into act of mindfulness.

2Explorations
These experiments and exercises of self-enquiry convinced me that art can indeed be a catalyst of self-expression, healing and promotes a sense of wellbeing in an individual. I decided to explore this connection of art with human mind and did my Masters in Psychology, in 2010.

I continued to apply these learnings in my role as a Life Skills Trainer in topics ranging from emotional intelligence to lateral thinking, it was becoming evident that using Art as a process can stimulate one's imagination and psychology to understand and ascertain its effect was taking shape.
