He began dabbling with art and colors when he was seven years old and was deeply inspired by the beauty of nature in the vibrant hues of Kerala, his hometown. An old soul, he believes he is connected with the spirit within and is consistently amazed with how art takes form. For example, during a power cut, he used the candle flame to create art and began smoke painting. He has a very fluid perception of art and has created over 150 pieces in oil, acrylic, collage and smoke painting. To a writer his pen, to Nitish his Staedtler Fineliner.

Try having a conversation with him and you will realize he is a man of few words. Start talking about automobiles and you will be left speechless by the energy and depth of the conversation.

Albeit an introvert he makes witty conversation. Don't judge him by his silence for his endurance on the bike will leave you amazed.

I love to write and tell stories. I particularly enjoy describing people. How do you describe yourself? Tall and thin? Or athletic and fit? It may be just words, but it has the power of description, relation and context. It can inspire a person to emote, connect and act. Words have the power to describe a moment, to create dreams and to relive special moments. This blog is a mix of intellect, spunk, resilience, cheesy, witty and overly dramatic just like the people I meet. These people capsules may change the way you think about somebody, make you aware of something you do unconsciously, allow you to relate to a wallflower or even be just food for thought.  I am going to try to tell you stories of people, as many as possible, and tell you in ways they never saw themselves.
