His academic background includes an MBA and MS in Business Analytics from the University of Massachusetts, USA, an MSc in Petroleum Engineering from Heriot-Watt University in the UK, and a B.Tech from IIT in India. While he is passionate about science, physics, technology, Sandeep has always been deeply passionate about art, seeing it as a way of life that can influence and innovate every aspect of his work. He is especially drawn to oil painting for its texture and versatility, but also enjoys acrylic and mixed media for their immediacy and ability to convey surrealistic and modern imaginations. His art blends elements of surrealism, fantasy, intellect, science, and life, often reflecting on the dynamics of existence, inner world and the cosmos.
Artistic Style
Sandeep’s artistic style is largely surrealistic, expressionistic, and abstract contemporary art. Using oil, acrylic, and mixed media, he captures life in all its forms, whether human, natural, or cosmic, and brings it to life on canvas. He is deeply influenced by engineering, architecture, philosophy, yoga, meditation and abstraction, incorporating a dream-like state of imagination in his work. His paintings often embody themes of stories, intellect, imagination, and love, offering a visual journey into dynamic and fluid compositions. Sandeep enjoys creating large-scale pieces on canvases and walls, and he is known for making personalized and affordable art that connects with people on a deeper level. Sandeep regularly practices yoga and meditation and believes in letting the art happen without restrains. One of his favorite quote is "Balance in the Chaos" which signifies the precious moments of the life amid the constrained limits of the surroundings.
