Giri explained that he always had passion for art at tender age so school played a major role in sharpening his skills

In an interview with Arts & Culture, Giri said he was confident about his artistic talent no wonder he decided to pursue fine art full time. He added that he chose the kind of art that is easy to explore at the same time enabling him to easily put food on the table.

He said fine art is marketable and easier to produce especially when the materials are available locally.
