 This short story is about a canvas that holds the universe within it , a dream intertwined with the cosmos that finally came true. My journey began with a deep belief in "The Universe" . Though I have always love to paint, my connection to the cosmos is profound , and it is this connection that inspires most of my artwork. I still remember that during my childhood days , I always used to gaze at the night sky , absorbing its vastness and beauty .    I felt so connected to the universe that most of my paintings are related to the cosmos.  So, in my paintings, you can find all the stars, planets, moon, milky way, galaxies, asteroids, comets and many more .

There are numerous superheroes in our imagination, but we all have that one superhero who holds a special place in our lives.   Allow me to share with you the story of my superhero, who hailed from a humble village in Odisha. Born on the 5th of May in 1954, he faced the loss of his father at a tender age. Despite this early hardship, he excelled in his studies and carried the weight of his family's responsibilities with grace and understanding.   He relocated to Ganjam and began working diligently in a private firm.

He was deeply spiritual and had a preference for dressing in white kurtas. Engaging in kirtan and bhajans, he found immense joy in devotional singing.
