Bushra Fatima Shaikh

I was born and raised in the vibrant city of Mumbai, India, where my middle-class upbringing instilled in me a deep passion for art. From a young age, I found myself drawn to the beauty of traditional landscapes, captivated by the harmonious existence of man-made structures within the natural world. This fascination has been the cornerstone of my artistic journey, compelling me to explore and depict the intricate balance between humanity and nature.

Currently, I reside in Mumbai, where the city's dynamic energy continues to inspire my work. My preferred mediums are canvas and acrylic, which allow me to capture the vivid colors and rich textures of the scenes I paint. Whether it’s the serene beauty of changing seasons or the allure of popular tourist attractions, I strive to bring each landscape to life with a blend of realism and artistry.

I am a self-taught artist, having honed my skills and developed my unique style from childhood. My journey has been one of constant learning and exploration, driven by a deep-seated love for traditional art. The decision to focus on traditional art forms stems from a desire to preserve and celebrate the timeless beauty of our surroundings, ensuring that each piece tells a story of its own.
