The Journey Begins

“The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.” – Pablo Picasso.

Hello art lovers! Welcome to my Art Dungeon!! I am Neha, a designer by profession but an artist by choice (and a happy one at that!)…Let me take you all on a ride through my world of  artistic expression, where I attempt to explore the infinite realms of art and creativity….hope you enjoy the ride!!

Who am I?

Hi! I am Neha Singh, a designer by professional qualification, who found her calling in art and thus decided to delve into the depths of this exquisite form of self expression.I am a self taught artist, specialising in oil paints as a medium. My work also includes other mediums like acrylics, specifically the technique of acrylic pouring. I like to experiment with different techniques of painting, with an aim to create texture in my art pieces, thereby giving them a tactile feel. I am extremely fascinated by colours, hence most of my artworks consist of a vast colour palette.Apart from oils and acrylics, I do try my hand with dry mediums like chalk pastels, charcoal and pencil colour every once in a while…anything to get the creative juices flowing!!

Thank you for visiting me here and I hope you have a great time!!

I am a Fashion Design Graduate from NIFT, New Delhi, my specialization being, Womenswear. After exploring the world of fashion to my heart’s content, I realised I have always been passionate about art and couldn’t help doodling my thoughts or putting my brush to the canvas in order to give them a voice, whenever I got the chance . I took this as a sign and in the year 2011, started creating my own compositions. Initially, I explored and honed my skills with the usual subjects – nature, still life etc., etc. But my very first muse in the real sense was the majestic mythical creature, the Dragon, and till date, it remains my ultimate source of inspiration. I explored the physical attributes of this fascinating creature’s body in intricate detail in three portraits of the famous dragon, Saphira, from the Eragon series.

My next source of inspiration was an inanimate but equally majestic subject, an invincible war machine, the Submarine. These incredible underwater vessels inspired me to put my brush and paints onto the canvas and express my passion for them. I painted one such submarine in the year 2013 and commissioned yet another composition in 2017. Thereafter, I was inspired by the divine and created a couple of abstract compositions of the Buddha and Krishna.

However, my all time favourite muse, the dragon called out to me once again in the year 2018. So, I decided to delve deeper into its psyche as well as anatomy, with an attempt to link the two in a symbiotic relationship. I experimented with the new found technique of Acrylic Pouring and created a series of 7 abstract compositions, where the dragon was a metaphor for the rage and fury of the human mind.

The rest, as they say, is history!! So this is my story…hope you liked it and will keep following it for it doesn’t end here…thanks for visiting my blog and hope to see you again soon!!
