In my childhood, I used to pray god very sincerely and my creative thoughts are the ultimate consequences of my prayer.
My parents were not aware of my arts in my childhood i.e.
they don’t know that I can draw with my legs and even I can draw on
sand. I used to prepare many structures with wet sand. And destroying
those structures was a good sort of enjoyment for me.
Even I used to prepare different toys using clay mud and
exhibited them to all this is the thing which I used to do in my very
childhood.
After completing my college Study in 1996, I got leisure
time for many months. I used to spend that leisure time in my room.
During this time, I sincerely and hopefully prayed to god. And this
creativeness in nothing but the result of his boons.
During 1996-1997, I entered Hyderabad with a strong
determination, along with my drawing and paintings which include
portraits and also other works which were drawn using different parts of
body starting from head to legs.
In 1998, Nara Chandra Babu Naidu sir appreciated me on
seeing my works He not even saw my original works just on seeing their
Xerox copies. He got really impressed.
During 1998-99, my works attracted some people towards me
in Ramoji film city. They enjoyed seeing my works before that a job
holder in T.V channel saw them and appreciated me. After that I thought
of exhibiting my work in Salarjung museum. But as my painting do not
have frames, they were not allowed for exhibition. However the museum
director Mr. Reddy on seeing my painting got impressed and appreciated
me.
In 2000-01, I started my career as a portrait artist in
Shilparamam. This help me a lot as it made me aware of my faults and
drawbacks.
However this gave me an opportunity to overcome my
drawbacks. My spectacles created a lot of problem to me. Because, as I
have weak eyesight I used to get confused frequently. under such
critical conditions I met some portrait artists namely VASU,P.
RAJESH,S.V.S.RAJU,JAFFER KHAN,RAVI(lumbini park) and later some more portrait artists namely P.RAJA
GOPALA RAO, PASHA, P.J STALIN, ANU BABU, VENKAT, RAMU and MARUTHI,
JYOTHI, cartoonist SHANKAR etc... Among them Mr. VASU was really on
amazing worker. I like his work very much after Shilparamam, I used to
draw portraits in NTR gardens also.
Not only in Hyderabad but, myself and MR.MARUTHI had a
trip of Ooty, Mysore and also myself and MR.GOPI, MR.PASHA had a trip
of Tirupati and Goa. We enjoyed a lot making portraits there
MY SON
He was born in 2006. We named him as "OLIN JOSEPH" He
started drawing with his mouth and legs his 5th year itself In 6th year,
he started doing work with his elbows, legs, hands folded back Form his
7th year, He also started using his foot as well as his knee for his
drawings.
As he covers all the aspects of work using body parts, from his 8th year he started striving for perfection
He also gave T.V interview regarding his drawings He had also drawn some drawings even in front of the media.
One of his best trails is a trail to draw his mother
portrait in his 7th year. Though it was not perfect, it was a good one
and was a good effort.
The best part of his mother portrait drawn by him is her eyes. He had drawn them neatly and correctly.
And I think, it is a great achievement when his age is
considered. Because, a small kid making efforts to draws his mother
portrait is really an outstanding and lovely effort..!
