Smita Sonthalia

Born and raised in India, where the vibrant culture, sparked an interest in art very early on. Smita’s paintings are her best friends, philosophers and guides and she enjoys every moment when she has a brush in hand.  

 

She says:

“Art is a very powerful tool. It tells stories without speaking a word. It can evoke a tsunami of emotions in your heart or can calm and relax your mind. It not only opens up creativity and imagination, but also helps develop focus and concentration. Painting is love, work, play, meditation and prayer”

​

Smita studied a Masters in Fine Arts and primarily draws inspiration from nature, spiritualism and women, all of which are close to her heart. Most of her paintings are mixed media; she experiments with textures, layers, inks, lines, patterns to create a unique piece each time.
