My style is based on the non-objective modern expressionist movement that originated in post-WWII New York. I work in an intuitive manner exploring line, form and color, but without a goal in mind. “My upbringing in colorful India, and my training as a physician and scientist, inspires me to meld colors and shapes on the canvas to create organic forms that spontaneously engage viewers. The finished painting evolves from the layers of paint I add to each piece. Some works may have as many as half a dozen layers that add to the perception of depth.”Though the combination of lines and shapes may be perceived in my art by the viewer as a certain object, this is rarely by design. It is an indication that the viewer has engaged on multiple levels beyond just the immediate visual interest of the piece.”

Her primary medium is wool but she also incorporates various other fibers into her art. Her work is created both using wet felting and needle felting techniques. “I love the tactile nature of the fibers and their ability to lend themselves to both the realistic and playful. Needle felting allows for sculpting the fibers and creating 3-D pieces which speaks to my interest in engineering and natural forms. It is a wonderful to sit with the fibers and create every day and the added level of joy experienced by sharing with others heightens the creative process.”
