K.K. Gandhi used to be a business man but driven by his artistic streak, he has now accomplished himself as a known painter of J&K. His manner of painting is based on realism – what he sees, he draws without using any computerised effects etc. He paints the heritage of J&K, with special reference to tribes of the state.  These tribes live in the lap of nature, and nature is something which has had always fascinated him. He captures these nomadic communities, the green landscapes, and how a tribe lives in peaceful relationship with the mountains and waters of nature. It is this serene coexistence of the aboriginals with the nature, that K.K Gandhi wishes to capture.  For his contribution to the promotion of these tribes, and his creativity, K.K. Gandhi has been felicitated with Award of Honour by the Honourable Governor of Jammu and Kashmir, 2015. He was conferred Artist of the day award at Jaipur International Art festival, Diggi palace, Jaipur 2013 as well as awarded by J&K Academy of Art, Cultural and Languages 2005. Due to his signature style of realistically depicting the life and lifestyle of tribes and nature, K.K. Gandhi is known by the epithet Nature Man.

The artist though appreciates their way of living, he still hopes these people would at least correct some aspects of their lives such as child marriage, lack of education for the kids, and other things which were discussed in Part I of the article.  In this article, the target is to know the interests of a tribal artist through the words and works of K.K. Gandhi.
