• Tell us more about your subject. How did you develop an interest in this field?

  Drawing human portraits was my childhood dream. I always tried to make human-based characters, as it attracts me the most when drawing or painting. I learned my lessons by practicing and discovering new things from my mentors and the internet. I focus on learning drawing fundamentals and anything can be made using those fundamentals. It works for me and it works for everyone as well. I like to work using versatile mediums and teach my students the same skills.

• What or who is the motivation behind you choosing to teach & why?

  I started teaching my friends about various subjects and discovered through it that I explained things very well. I then started teaching professionally and my students are the biggest motivation for me. Teaching has also served me well in terms of learning. I grow as an artist whenever I teach.

• How does your work help society?

  Learning art helps in brain development through critical and creative thinking. What I teach, helps in understanding how things are made using drawing, which is the best way to learn with application and then creation. It helps society especially the younger generation learn practical and creative things instead of only theoretical things.

• If you had to think of a role model for your work, who do you think of & why?

  My role model is Stan Prokopenko. He is a great teacher.
