ARTWORK
Coastal Colours
150cm x 120cm | Mixed Media on canvas
"Coastal Colours" is an abstract painting that captures the essence of a serene seashore where the sea, sand, and sky converge. This artwork embodies both dynamism and tranquility, reflecting the ever-changing yet calming nature of the ocean. I am deeply drawn to the ocean, finding inspiration in everything about it—the crashing waves, the soft sand, and the shifting hues of the sea across different times of day and seasons. This painting is my attempt to encapsulate a single fleeting moment from the infinite beauty and inspiration the ocean offers.

Latte
121cm x 91cm | Mixed Media on canvas
"Latte" is an abstract painting inspired by the rich swirls and warm tones of a Café Latte. This piece was an experimental journey, where I intentionally restricted the palette to earthy coffee hues and white, blending these shades with textures to explore their interplay. The thin layers of color come together to evoke the richness and indulgence of a perfectly brewed coffee.

The Deep Blue Canvas
61cm x 91cm | Acrylic on canvas
Wispy whites, dark blues and the in-betweens. There are shades of blue, aqua, turquoise and countless hues that emerge from layered, translucent colours. I love the details of this painting where you can see the remnants of the shades underneath a layer.

Quietude 4
76cm x 101cm | Mixed Media on canvas
The "Quietude" series captures the sense of peace and calm I feel when I gaze at the ocean. This new painting extends the series beyond the ocean. I’ve realized that I feel the same serenity when I look at the vast expanse of the desert, with its rolling sand dunes. The vastness, stillness, and quiet of these places comfort me, evoking a deep sense of quietude.

BIO
Artist. Aparna My formal education is in graphic design, art and illustration. I have professional experience in e- commerce, web design, usability, and digital art in India and Singapore. My heart lies in the world of creation, drawing, and painting, with a special place for the joy and happiness I find in the painting process. Nature, textures, colours, and the interplay of various hues and patterns are my muses, leaving a profound mark on my creations. STATEMENT My artistic journey is marked by an insatiable curiosity and a willingness to experiment with a wide array of mediums and tools. I select the medium that best complements the subject or theme, continually expanding my artistic horizons. My commitment to growth is evident in my pursuit of various courses, including Western Abstract and Ceramics courses at NAFA. I truly believe there is no age limit to learning and I live by that belief. I enjoy exploring a range of styles, from figurative to semi-abstract and abstract. I like exploring various textures and their interactions with colours. My art process can be spontaneous or planned and many a times a mix of both. My venture into abstract art has opened up new dimensions of artistic expression and exploration. I am drawn to visual and tactile properties of various materials and I like to put them together and observe how they interact. I look forward to sharing my artworks with the world as I continue to evolve as an artist. |
