My name is Midhun.R.R. I am a self-taught artist from Trivandrum, Kerala. I have had a keen interest in visual arts, right from my childhood. At first, I only used pencil as a medium and continued to master the various techniques of shading. In my 8th grade, I began to experiment on pencil lead. Towards the end of high school, I started painting. Throughout my schooling, I have won several awards in various competitions such as clay modelling, coconut shell carving and other forms of model-making.
One of my biggest achievements so far is securing the first place in rocket model making in 2010, conducted by VSSC (Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre), a major space research centre of ISRO (Indian space Research Organisation). This was a major turning point in my life. My passion for exploring various forms of art led me to experiment with new medium such as coffee painting, flame ash art, hair art etc. I have also done a series of micro-painting i.e painting on extremely small surfaces.
