My journey of drawing portraits

I was earlier in Delhi.  At the corporate office of SAIL.  I was good in music. And music composition.  I was curious to know how the musicians of R D Burman looked like. I collected the names from pancham site. And drew their pictures. 

I also had aptitude in mathematical constants and ASP.NET programming.  At Delhi.  Then I was transferred to RDCIS,  Ranchi. Possibly due to Modi government or steel ministry policy. I came to Ranchi alone. My family could not accompany me as my wife was working. 

Alone in Ranchi I did intense work in mathematics.  Pentagon, Taylor series,  Maclaurin series etc. But however hard I worked and tried to deliver intuitive work, the same was refused by RDCIS officials.

I got frustrated a lot. Neither was I considered for transfer back or was my intuitions was considered. 

I took to portraits and caricatures seriously because I found the whole thing unjustified.  I was pretty focused on SAIL and was frustrated when RDCIS management refused my presentations too on intuitive mathematical constants knowledge. 

My viewpoint is it is better to try portraits and caricatures commissioned work than be stuck like this. 

If you like my knowledge pieces, you have to accept it at personal and office level too. Nehruji liked technical things so much. He accepted technology personally and at official level too. Sardar Patelji also would have done to spread technical knowledge. 

My knowledge is of constants and expressions. Constants are at a higher level than heat. Because we say hot because of cold. And that is pi and e. Two things.
