### My story

Art is mera sab kuch (my everything). Been painting for 13+ years, and trust me, it’s not always easy. Sometimes it’s struggle, sometimes pure joy. When I paint Shivji or Hanuman ji, it’s like prayer for me. Har har Mahadev! My family, friends, even my little nephew’s doodles, they inspire me. Kanheri gufaon ki sundar kala, nature, culture—sab kuch hai mere brush mein (everything’s in my brush). Bada sapna, bada canvas, aur usse bhi badi mehnat. This is who I am.
