About happytrin:

I am deeply inspired by how much Good there is in the Universe. Despite the hostility and fears of the times, it is fascinating to me how all that is Good so effortlessly manages to translate and manifest itself in the day-to-day encounters between mankind, nature, and the cosmos. As an artist, I have made it my prime motive to capture and represent as much of this Goodness as I possibly can.

I always say, "I paint darkness, so I can paint light..."

My paintings, which are mostly executed in oil on canvas with recycled wooden frames, seek to portray the positive side of every phenomenon. Themes I commonly uphold in my art include: life after death, forgiveness and redemption after having gone awry, awakening to one’s purpose in life, light amid darkness, spirituality over materialism, peace amidst chaos, enlightenment, hope, and universal love.

For the succeeding years of my artistic life, I intend to further develop my creative practice--- to stretch and continue to expand it with the hope of having my artworks exhibited to a wider international audience.
