Since when did your journey into art begin?
I was 4 years old when I started out with art and haven’t looked back since then.
Which art form is your favourite and why?
Canvas and sketching are my go to art forms. They bring a sense of relief and ease. I feel quite relaxed while sketching.
How does your support you as an artist?
The teachers encourage me to participate in different drawing competitions and always appreciate my art and offer my suggestions and feedback which helps me improve.
Everyone has their vision for art, share your perspective with us?
A world of nature is art. It is complete in itself and man must preserve nature and be one with it.
How much time does it take you to complete an artwork? What are the common ideas and themes?
It takes me 6 to 7 days to complete an artwork. I can finish an artwork earlier than this but I have other commitments as well, such as school work and other hobbies.
Upcoming artworks from you?
I am trying to learn sketching in more detail. So, one will see more realistic sketches from me soon.
One new artform you wish to learn?
Drawing animated characters! I am very keen on this
Finally, other hobbies apart from art?
Football. It is the king of all sports and nothing comes closer than the happiness after playing a good football match.
