I started painting from the time I started kindergarten. My first teacher was my mother who introduced me to color and let me use my own imagination. I was actively involved in art at school level winning many prizes. I took a long break to further my higher education and raise two wonderful kids. Later on with my husbands encouragement I started to learn watercolor under a professional artist while developing my own style in acrylic and oil color. I have participated in two joint exhibitions .
I love nature and human figures .I try to bring out texture and simplify things in my works.Color is some thing I use to attract the viewer and I mostly try to select nature as my source of inspiration
I am pleased that eight of my paintings have been put on display at a joint art exhibition for imerging artists at Gallery Fourlife in Colombo
