Visual artist · Certified art therapist · New Delhi
I've been making art since I was very young, and it has grown alongside everything else I've done. I studied engineering at NSIT and management at XLRI and worked in product roles for about five years, while my art kept moving forward in parallel. Today it is my main work.
I paint intuitive, abstract works about energy, stillness and change, mostly in acrylics on canvas. I also create murals, digital art, and run art and therapeutic art workshops for children and adults, under the name When Colours Whisper.

I felt very relaxed after the therapy session. So much that had been on my mind, I was finally able to let go of, and come back to the present moment.
Your art has so much depth. I feel one of your artworks has that Starry Night vibe, and I felt really drawn to it. I am very happy. Keep creating artworks like these. You're doing very well.
Really excited for you. Congratulations!
There is a lot of depth in your artwork. I feel so many emotions rising to the surface as I look at it, and I'm really happy for all the artworks I am seeing. Keep it up. Grateful to be witnessing so many beautiful artworks. I will be following your journey.

Tell me about a feeling, a person, a place or a wall, and I'll paint it with you in mind. I take on a few commissions at a time, on canvas or as murals.
Each painting carries the story of a lesson, a challenge or a moment of growth. Open any painting to read its story or ask about it.

Artist, art therapist, and always a learner.
I'm a visual artist and certified art therapist based in New Delhi. I've made art since I was a child, and it kept growing alongside my studies in engineering at NSIT and management at XLRI, and my years in product roles. Today it is my main work.
My process is intuitive. It begins with absorption: reading, meditating, spending time in nature, and letting emotions take shape within me. When inspiration strikes, I follow it and let the colours lead. Once a piece is finished, I like to sit with it and ask friends what they see, because the meaning often surprises me too.
Life is very funny. It teaches us in many ways. First, a lesson comes from inside, showing us how we are acting and how others are acting. If we don't understand it from within, it shows up outside us as the same situation, again and again, until we respond in a way that helps us move past it. When we judge someone, or wonder why they do what they do, life often places us in their shoes, until we understand.
Through it all, I try to remember that this is a game, one we play to know ourselves better: who we are as people, and who we are deep inside. As we go deeper, more layers show up, and each one makes us more of who we really are. So my focus is simply to observe, learn my lessons well, see people as messengers, and keep turning towards my inner journey.
Art, or any other medium, lets us express ourselves in a pure and authentic way, and connect with the world directly. Every emotion we have felt, everything we have been through, and every person we have met along the way has shaped who we are, and we create from all of it. Each of my artworks is the sum of the people, experiences and lessons I have lived through. That is what I try to show every time I create.
Art has been my constant, through school competitions, college fests, five years in fintech, and now as my main work.

I want to keep growing as an artist and as an art therapist, side by side. I'd like to show my work in more galleries in India and abroad, and to build a body of work that people can sit with, not just look at.
I also want to take therapeutic art to more people, through workshops for children, schools, NGOs and teams, and to keep learning, especially in clay, a medium I want to develop much further.
