Hello, I am an architect by profession, spent last 10 years in city of Delhi, Jaipur, Mumbai and finally based at Gurgaon with my spouse (working currently in an MNC) & Daughter Swara. After completion of architectural course, started career in same but always having inclination towards world of colors. Being a good drawing student always had a pack of colors with me and used to play with them in my leisure time. After my baby, I thought not to pursue career in architecture and to do something with colors- and this way this art form joined hands with me.
