Among the many artists hailing from the coastal paradise of Goa, a few are dedicated to using their talents for the betterment of the state. One such passionate individual is Vaibhav Salgaonkar, widely known as ArtByBu. Vaibhav spent his formative years in the quaint village of Calangute; he never visualized artistry as his ultimate path. Like most young dreamers, he envisioned joining the fields of science or sports.
A vital source of inspiration during Vaibhav's childhood was his older brother, who excelled in drawing contests. This motivated Vaibhav, who proved his talents by winning and representing his school and college in various cultural events across Goa. This is where the seed of artistry was first sown.
Additionally, Vaibhav cites Alexyz (Alex Raphael), a Goan cartoonist, as one of his most essential inspirations. He even attended a certificate course held by the aforementioned renowned artist.
Art was not the only passionate aspect of Vaibhav's life; through his academic journey, he developed a deep interest in Biotechnology, opting for a Master's in this field after completing his Bachelor of Science degree. In between his bachelor's and master's programs, Vaibhav began his Instagram page, 'ArtByBu,' establishing an online presence for his artistic abilities. Though cheerfully dedicated to his studies, he nearly forgot his artistic potential and even considered pursuing a PhD in Biotechnology-until 2020, when the world began making decisions for its inhabitants due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
