Painter, Creative Director , Musician (at times),  Co -Founder of THE NEXT BIG THINK, a boutique creative agency and i am blessed with two awesome kids.  I constantly explorer the human spirit and what is around me.  Painting has always been my core even though I have been in advertising. My style is a mix of classical and contemporary painting, mainly using Acrylic/Oils and soft pastels. Still love the old maters and constantly trying to figure out their tricks. I would say I am a slow, detailed painter.
 
Being a Sri Lankan artist has given so much subject matter for most of my pieces.  Whether it is dirt on the road, to the most interesting faces on the pavement or the most breath-taking trees that I am obsessed with.  I can go on… Almost everywhere I look, I get inspiration. I don’t necessarily believe in sticking to one theme of art, or every piece has to be interlinked, for the world is so chaotic and constantly changing, that inspiration can pop up from anywhere. Climate change has been an area I have been exploring in the recent past. 
 
Although my Academics are from Communication Design and Marketing, and being in Advertising for the longest period (some award winning work), has widened the way I look art and also made me understand the true value of proper artistry vs. the commercial art, and what not to be as an artist. I studied under Nadine David (Who studied under David Paynter), a fine arts tutor for over 10 years and have valuable knowledge that was passed down.

2018 concluded a successful solo exhibition based on a theme 'Soulscapes'
Here explore of the feminine soul in its barest form. Innermost desires, awakened feelings, hungers and daydreams find their place on canvas in portrayal of the 'I' within every woman. My work aims to provoke a deep sense of exploration of oneself as woman. ​
