My Story
I am a self-taught painter, having started painting at the age of six. I have had seven solo exhibitions - June 2011 (Hong Kong), April 2014 (Mumbai), March 2015 (Prague), November 2016 (Hong Kong), September 2016 (Hong Kong), October 2015 (Mumbai) and April -2020 Greenburgh Town Hall (Westchester, NY) and participated in a few group shows in NY and Westchester as a part of Mamaroneck Artist guild.
As a mother, a former banker, an executive coach, and co-founder of an ed-tech start-up, I cherish experiences from the diverse roles in my life and express myself through bold brush strokes and a vibrant palette (mostly oils). Lately, I have been pursuing Masters in Art therapy at NYU to convert my intuitive knowledge I have gained in art into academic qualifications backed by evidence-based research to be able to work in the mental health space.
I have continued to explore nature as my anchor and to paint prolifically with watercolors to face the challenging year of the pandemic.
My art explores the eternal within the ephemeral. In our lives, we vividly remember moments of peace, rejuvenation, energy, hope, and love. When memory strips out the cognitive deluge of the time, a feeling lingers even as the details retreat. How we feel about sights, moments and experiences define our memories, which become anchors in our lives. I have loved painting those personal memories of such transformative moments for my clients as well as a part of my series called insta2canvas.
