He was charmed by different cultures while growing to love classical music and developing his natural talent for painting. His grandmother who was a fine art lover, introduced him to the French 'Savoir Faire' and insisted on him taking painting classes for almost ten years. Manos favourite themes are women and flowers, especially roses.
