I, along with my husband live in Bedford, Nova Scotia. A dentist by profession, I grew up in India and moved to Canada in 2008. My journey from a country girl to a successful professional and a businesswoman was filled with intriguing and enriching experiences. The sudden loss of my son in 2013 sent me on an arduous journey through the dark tunnel of grief. I got out at the other end with a changed perspective, looking for ways to heal myself. That is when I stumbled upon my hidden talent of oil painting! I painted simple objects like flowers, birds in the beginning to visually experience the joy and counter the emotional numbness. Slowly, I grew as an artist and concluded that this the real me. Painting calms my mind and allows me to express the beauty and complexity of life on canvas. Mostly in oil, I want my paintings to tell the story of the invincible human spirit. I am excitedly waiting to see where it takes me!
