Now her passion has become her profession. “Art is something that brings serenity in my mind. Whatever I paint, is a just creation of my thoughts and imagination. All my paintings are a reflection of my thinking pattern and all are in the meditative state .Basically I paint in acrylic medium. My world of painting is full of life and colours. Through painting I get connect to my higher self that is GOD (love). I believe painting, is one of the best media of self -heal- ing. Art as a therapy takes one from depression to wellness. Whenever I need peace, I paint Buddha, similarly for realizing the true inner meaning of love, I paint Radha Krishna. In one of my artwork, I have shown. Krishna’s love for Radha, Rukmini and Meara and Gopi- kas were always the same....never dependent on association. In other words, God’s love for all is the same...Only love is real...and LOVE IS GOD. If I feel low in power and to raise power within I paint Druga”, she says!
