First the painting is sketched manually by taking reference from live masks, and using creativity to draw them.

This painting is painted and sketched with a very high detailed level which gives the painting a uniqueness to this painting.

My main motive in creating these paintings, there is only a few references and paintings related to my culture. My paintings were made using taking reference from live resources such as sculptures, mask and temples and also I have also used my style to make these paintings unique and stand out. My paintings are very detailed that it cannot be found anywhere.
