This one is for my attempts at painting and drawing. I am not very skillful, but I love to draw and paint, time permitting. I find it very relaxing and therapeutic. The elation that comes with having created something, however pathetic it may be, feels really great.

I would have had formal education in art, but you all know how it works in an Indian set-up, you do what your parents expect of you. My Dad wanted me to be in science, and since I loved life sciences because it gave me opportunites to draw (diagrams and illustrations), I yielded.

I think doing basic science research is an art in itself. You think out and create new experiments, get results and apply them to a more relevant clinical setting. However, it can be very frustrating at times when the experiments don't work!

I would be posting drawings on this blog that I make overtime.

Some drawings/paintings that I have already done would be posted shortly.
