Inspiration

My work is greatly inspired by my surroundings and my experiences. I get a lot of inspiration from my travels which feed my love of adventure and discovery.  A recent trip to San Francisco opened up skies of thought in all direction: from Indian food to good conversations, quiet moments in the sun to gritty pavement streets, everything is fuel for the imagination!
