Born on 20 June 1927 in Karnataka, he started his career by painting billboards and then went on to be an Art Director with different advertising agencies, but soon he quit and moved his focus entirely to painting. A versatile artist both in content and form he always pursued art with dedication and devotion and always remained open to new trends and techniques.
