I am a post-graduate in English Literature. I have had no formal art training, but have always had an intense attraction for natural beauty. Painting, I felt, was the best creative way to express myself. My association with oil paints has been for the past 6-7 years. But in true sense, the Bob Ross techinque of painting has changed my way of painting and understanding Nature in its various forms. I have also attended art classes taken by Bob Ross certified instructors. They have given me much insight about wet-on-wet method of oil painting. I am currently, also learning some other techniques of drawing under "Art Instruction Schools, Minneapolis" in hopes of widening my field of drawing. Though I love painting landscapes in oil, I also like to try my hands on still life. I believe, Nature, in all its forms, is the most beautiful gift God has given to man. And so I love adding life in different ways to my paintings.
