About Us
Hello and welcome!
An immediate response to color is the most important aspect of being human. As a self-taught passionate artist, colors represent the many moods that life exhibits and I like to incorporate as much color in my paintings as possible, this creating rich, vibrant, responsive, energetic art reflecting the many moods of life.
I am inspired by colors, forms and nature.
I have been sketching and painting since childhood. I started by making greeting cards for various family occasions and holidays and even had a small business of fabric painting along with a friend. My love for the arts has been a continuing passion since.
I work in many different styles and mediums because they allow me to fully play with colors, textures and forms. Hues of reds and earthy tones are my favorite colors since they add a certain warmth and cheerfulness to my artwork.
Some of my other interests are:
- Jewelry Designing (www.artncreation.com)
- Interior Designer, CGBP, Color and Sustainability Consultant.
- Eco-chic purses - Where style meets sustainability (www.zansuspurses.com)
- Founder, Empowering World Change (www.empoweringworldchange.com)
- Photography (www.flickr.com/photos/sushantabhandarkar)
If you have any thoughts, questions about particular artwork, purchase questions, raves or rants, or anything else you'd like to say, please email me: artncreation@gmail.com
Cheers !
