STAR: What artists inspire you.What
is the source of inspiration?
MANASI.S: I get inspired by artists who are
pioneers of a technique/style like van Gogh,
Henry Matisse, Gustav klimt, a contemporary
artist like Carrie Moyer and Damien Hirst.
Their artwork inspires me to someday find a
style and make it my own.
STAR: When did you discover you
were an artist?
MANASI.M I have been painting ever since
I was a child. Although I started painting with
acrylic on canvas only five years back. Now I
have also started doing wall paintings, I find
the large canvas that a wall provides very
exciting.
STAR: Why are you so passionate
about ART?
MANASI.M: I am inspired by people and
places when I travel and so art is a way for me
to express my love for the place and to relive
the moment.
