He draws most of his inspiration from personal perception: “It may start from hauntingly vivid dreams, to nostalgic memories, to wild emotions, to painful moments, to melancholic days, to the untapped and unknown windows inside my soul, to the stillness and quietness of a place to mere words from thy lips. A lot of images come to my mind every day from a lot of sources, I just have to catch them all and create them as I saw them.”
