A Beginning....

Light is the entity giving us sight. Sight gave us visions for art. Art is rendition of inner self. Which brings me to Photonoic, a place where my pictures and paintings can speak thousands of words.
People say pictures are only for seeing, but I believe you can hear and feel from them too. A picture may be worth thousands of words but some express themselves in only one. How you choose that one is up to you. Photonoic is a galleria for my passion. Observe, contemplate and be gratified with the notion of color in silence.

I feel Criticism is something which can help an artist grow.So Feel free to Criticize.

Contact me through mail for any queries regarding my pictures or artworks.
