About Exhibitions, Awards & Community
When I paint live at places like ITC Gardenia, it is not just about the canvas. It is about the conversations that happen while the brush is moving. I love hearing what a specific color or a Kerala mural detail sparks in someone. Those raw, honest reactions during exhibitions are what keep me going.
Being part of Bangalore's art scene has been one of the biggest joys of my journey. Whether it is the buzzing, vibrant energy of Chitra Santhe or the more intimate setting of the Haat of Art, these events are where I feel most at home.
Why I Love Exhibitions
Exhibitions are not just about displaying my work. They are about community. When I stand at my stall, like at the Indian Institute of World Culture, I get to meet fellow artists, art collectors, and curious visitors who share stories about what art means to them.
Live Painting & Engagement
I often incorporate live painting demos into my exhibition stalls. It allows visitors to see the process, from the initial sketch to the final layer of acrylic. Watching someone's expression change as a lotus pond or a Buddha portrait comes to life is deeply rewarding. It breaks down the wall between the artist and the viewer, making art feel accessible to everyone.
Appreciation & Connections
I am always humbled by the kind words I receive. Whether it is a conversation with a fellow artist, an appreciation from a chef at ITC Gardenia, or a new friend I made at an event, these interactions are the awards I cherish most. If you visit one of my future exhibitions or see me at an art festival, please come by and say hello. I would love to meet you, hear your story, and share what I am currently working on.
