Bio<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Unusual shapes and textures paired with pure, vibrant colors are key characteristics of my work. The values in color and the emotions they evoke are what inspire me to explore different hues. I feel the vibrancy in the colors acts like art therapy in elevating one\u2019s mood, giving a festive outlook. Not only are these shades inspirational, but so is the intentional selection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I select colors that aim to shock or surprise the viewer; rather than using expected colors for objects and figures, I chooses shades that deviate from the norm. As the owner and managing director of Venvi Art Gallery, I have the pleasure of curating renowned artists for the gallery\u2019s shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are infinite things to learn from art and I think one cannot master art in one lifetime. An artist\u2019s life is always learning and realizing something new all the time. I love the excitement I experience while thinking about new ideas, compositions, and creating the art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After earning my baccalaureate and master\u2019s degree in mathematics at Florida State University, I work as a math faculty for online universities. Living in Tallahassee, I have had many opportunities to attend art classes to enhance my art skills. My visit to hone my painting skills at Yazi School of Visual Arts under the supervision of world-renowned artist, Prof. Jacob Pichhadze, was a watershed experience. Since then, I have been pursuing painting seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a child my father felt it was easier to manage me and keep my engrossed for long periods of time by providing me with paint tubes. Being the youngest of five sisters, I had exposure to drawing from my sisters’ science record books and casual drawings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My mother\u2019s traditional drawings were a big fascination. During my early school years (Seetha Kingston, Chennai, India from grades 1 through 10) the teachers encouraged art. Students and teachers alike considered me the artist of the school. The consistent success in art competitions for 10 consecutive years fanned my passion for art and painting. I have created painting for local cultural programs and sold my paintings at charity shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
