"Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it!"

I think it is high time for me to appreciate and thank everyone who have directly and indirectly helped me paint the way I do. Most importantly I would like to thank god for blessing me with this talent and of course my parents- Sri.Y V Ravi Shankar and Smt. Kavitha Srinivasan who have constantly supported me and encouraged me in all possible ways.They could not have done more. Thank you so much. 
 

After my grandfather Late Sri.C S Srinivasan introduced me to painting, it has been a long journey which began way back in 2003 under Ms.Mamatha Nagesh, and she actually spearheaded the entire thing and for which I am forever grateful to her. Two other people who must be mentioned are Mr. Leslie Thyagarajan and Mr.Azmi Khan who helped me do better and fine tuned my work to a great extent. I am also highly thankful to all other art teachers who came across my way  Mr.Mohan Kumar, Mr.Shiva Kumar, Mr.Karunakar, Ms.Gowri, Ms.Nanda Putty, Ms. Rekha Gupta and all others who have been a part of my journey so far. 
All my teachers and principals in school and college for constantly encouraging me to pursue my hobby. 
 

 I would also love to thank the entire family, a large number of relatives and friends.
