Hello! Hola! Ciao! Namaste! Bonjour!

​

I have started this blog to share my interests as an upcoming artist and share my progress.

I am full time data analyst trying to make it as an artist and someday setup my own studio eventually.

​

I have been drawing and sketching since I was about 8 years old watching my father draw. I used to doodle quite a bit in school all the way through college and during my bachelors(2002-2006) and then life/career took the drivers seat and kicked art out of the vehicle itself.

​

Almost  a decade passed since I even did anything remotely classified as 'ART' until it was 2015 and my beautiful wife encouraged me to take some evening classes at a University where I live and there has been no looking back since!

I have taken my first professional drawing class at Emory, under the guidance of Guy Robinson, then continues on to an introductory class under him as well. I try to attend as many local art workshops as time and money would allow me to.

I adore and revere David Leffel,Mark Carder and John Singer Sargent, to name a few.

I also have recently started exploring the unlimited capabilities of the 'limited' palette.

​

A few guidelines that I like to keep in mind when it comes to art:

​

  • Make your work so good that it is simply impossible to ignore you

  • If you live by the compliments, you die by the criticism

  • Life imitates art

​

Thank you for taking the time to find out about me. Hope you like the content and get some use out of it.
