I draw inspiration from the beauty I see on our amazing Planet Earth: the flora, the fauna, the colors and shapes of the natural environment. Having grown up in South India and lived half of my life in the UK, I depict subjects and use a chromatic range that express the complexity of my bicultural identity, enriched by my personal experience as a world traveler, physician, and woman. A holy ritual by the Ganges river, a rose garden, a muggy winter afternoon, or the wild flames of a fire exert equal fascination over me. I marvel at the wonders that surround me and let feelings of passion, gratitude, love, or sadness filter through the canvas onto the eye of the beholder.
