You’re not just looking for art... you’re seeking something that speaks to your soul. A piece that anchors your space and gently mirrors the strength, softness, and transformation you've lived through.

That’s what my work is created for.

I’m a visual artist based in Melbourne, Australia originally from India. My paintings are layered with the essence of nature, cultural memory, and the emotional landscapes shaped by travel, womanhood, and the quiet unfolding of becoming.

Using acrylics, watercolours, oils, and layered mixed media, I bring to life textured stories that invite you to slow down, reconnect, and see beauty through a more intuitive lens.

Over time, my practice has shifted from painting emotional landscapes to creating symbolic, narrative-rich works exploring identity, transformation, and the softer side of strength, especially through the lived experience of womanhood.

My latest series, She Blooms in Light, is a tribute to the kind of feminine power that doesn’t shout to be heard. It rises through intuition, softness, and deep self-knowing, and lives in every layer of pigment. Each piece invites you to reconnect with your own quiet power and honour the strength that lives within.

If you're looking for artwork that feels like a reflection of your own inner transformation, explore the available collection or reach out.

Your space deserves more than decoration; it deserves art that grounds you, soothes your spirit, and helps you reconnect with what truly matters.

Each piece I create is inspired by the quiet wisdom of nature and the emotional language found in colour, texture, and movement inviting you into moments of stillness and presence.

Whether it’s the flow of tides or the openness of the sky, my work creates a space where expression meets calm a gentle pause to welcome emotional honesty and clarity.

These artworks are meant to live with you to grow with your story and deepen in meaning over time. Whether in your home, a gallery, or a community space, they hold room for reflection, your personal story, and soulful connection.

If you want art that does more than just fill a wall, art that becomes part of your daily life take a look at the collection or reach out so we can create a custom piece that tells your own story and truth.
