Personal Info

I am a self taught artist, originally from southern part of India-Kerala. I believe my artistic talents inherited from my mom’s family. I was inspired by many great artists among the family members and the people those who surrounded me during my formation period. I started drawing the live caricatures since I was 13 years old. When I was a student in the university, I won the first prize in cartooning. In 1992 my first editorial cartoon was published in the local newspaper. Then a few of political cartoons published in news papers and magazines for the next few years. Since 1997 I was in Singapore, during this time won the first prize in a logo design contest, that conducted by STMicroelectronics Pte. Ltd. I learned the basics of oil painting during this time. My passion for creation started at very young age and has stood the test of my time because my passion is not only everlasting, but I need to create. With out this creative process in my life, I am empty and will cease to exist spiritually and with out a solid meaning. What ever you may think of my style of work I value and respect every opinion, but truly hope when you leave this site you gain “something” from viewing my art work
