| He has won a Jn.Research Fellowship 
                          by Human Resource Development, Govt. of India award.  Artist Say  I am artist, basically from Yavatmal town, Maharashtra, 
                          born in 1963. From my child hood I was interested in 
                          Paintings. My interest in art o¬nly guided me, to 
                          take Painting as a carrier. I was always guided & 
                          encouraged by my elder brother Shashikant, A well-known 
                          photographer in, Chennai.  I completed B.FA from Nagpur School of Arts (Govt.), 
                          Nagpur, Maharashtra. In search of some new experience 
                          & exposure, I came to Cholamandal Artist village, 
                          Chennai. There I started growing & developing with 
                          my painting. I worked o¬n WINDOW, an abstract expression 
                          of feeling & experience. This lyricism leads to 
                          evolution in architectural forms, as it was very fascinating 
                          to express the play of light o¬n architectural forms, 
                          I continue wi\orking o¬n this. My abstraction is 
                          the linear configuration o¬n the surface. The linear 
                          matrix spreads vertically. Colors are the most fascinating 
                          aspect in my works. There is still more to work & 
                          grow.  "SEARCHING FOR ME WITHIN ME, LOOKING 
                          FOR ME OUT OF ME".
