Born in the enchanting land of Assam,( the eastern most part of the country) which boasts of some of the most beautiful Landscapes of our mother land India. Probably ithese all started when I born, when I took over sense. Probably it was all my beloved father who I inherited it from.

The journey literally began in my childhood, amidst nature, when I roamed about with my grand father all down the roads, lanes, by lanes and all over my house and around. References of those moments used to peep in my childhood drawings. But those nostalgias are still the integrity of my present works also.

Poverty has always been a part and parcel of my life, what I call to be my never ending struggle and source of inspirations. I think it was one of the reasons that I took up BALL PEN as a means of work, a tool to express my artistic urge, my expressions, my thoughts. What can be more cheaper than a Ball pen Refills, with which I could do something different, off the league. Yes, that’s what I could effort at that time. Exactly that’s where and how I started my journey.

I completed my first research work in the year 1993. That time my father was alive. He was my constant source of inspiration for the project. It’s during this time I discovered the extant to which a Ball Pen can go. I started feeling that this can be a medium through which I can make my own footmark. Thus, I started developing my own style. A style which I can possibly be establishing as my Signature Style, down the line.

It was in the year 1995 I compiled The Thirteen Lucky plates of my Ball Pen Works Titled ASSAM IN BOHAG BIHU A series of Ball Pen Picture depicting The happenings of Bohag Bihu in sequence. Although the compilation got collected globally, I believe it is yet to be evaluated. I never claim it to be an extraordinary work but it was definitely be a collectable material and a testimony of Assamese culture and Life. The entire series was exhibited in several places in the State, namely in the Historical Tinsukia Book Fair 1996, in Tejpur , Earth Song Guwahati etc.

Next came yet another collection Title SEEN UNSEEN A VISUAL POETRY OF GUWAHATI this is also a Collection of Ball Pen Works. In this collection I made an effort to capture the moments, the colours and the texture of a City Life. (here it’s Guwahati). Which was exhibited in Earth Song in the year 2001.

Both the above mentioned Series have been an experimentation of a new form and style , which taught me a great deal. Here I should mention that whatever I have been learning, I have been learning by my self. I have not been able to afford a fine art schooling , whatsoever.

Since 2003 I have been trying to explore the medium of OIL ON CANVAS and started giving full time as a Proffessional. And therefore, this is my Identity now and the prime sourse of bread. For which I got tremendous appreciations locally. A good number of my works got collected by the local people also. I shall alway...
