The Unusual Talent of the child made the parents provide him the necessary guidance, and "His teacher Bhawna and his Grandmother Nirmal Raheja also helped him streamline his thoughts, and moulded him to put a pattern to his thoughts," said Kashish.
His mother explains that Armaan's artworks are not merely a play with colours but thoughtful creations. She also spoke about how each of his canvases with titles like Supernova and Jellyfish is a wash of well-composed colour, thickly layered by hand and brush.
Overjoyed at the recognition that their son's work is getting, Kashish said, "Our parents have always told us to value the inherent potential in people; they did the same to us that made us help our child in channelizing the energy. We are happy that he enjoys his artistic side, and we want to keep on supporting him."
