Found this poem I wrote in second grade & it brought a tear to my eye...
Clearly the same things keep me up at night now🧐

A bus or a car will do
But will a tree or a flower do more?
You tell me my friends
Should we destroy
Nature or not

.....

Make a choice

These images were both taken using natural light and are an example of the effect of lightning & framing on an artwork

Figure studies Part 2 >>
Ink & pencil on paper

Grateful to the art models who made these figure studies possible 🙌🏽

...what a piece of trash...

Figure studies (#1-10)

It took me years to get comfortable sharing these on social media and my website. They represent a celebration of the human body and of movement through space.

I am thankful to the models who made it possible to create these.

When they asked me to create self-portraits in high-school...🧐🙈

#Selfies from #highschool

Ten years ago I painted @nikhimouse waiting for a train at a metro station. The painting was showcased in exhibits across Fairfax, Alexandria, Charlottesville, and Washington D.C.

Three years ago, Nikhi’s fiancé @kalvempati bought the painting and surprised her for her birthday with it 🎉

Now, the painting lives happily ever after in NYC.
