Sanjeev is the creator of SIGNATURE ART. A unique form as unique as each individual's life, fingerprints or iris scans. It uses the signature as the foundation- the base and then doodles the important milestones, experiences, interests and things of relevance in a free-flowing doodle on top of it. Result- every signature art is different. In fact, if he creates signature art for the same person twice, the result would not be the same.
