Aarti Kumhar

I’m Aarti, an artist based in Mumbai. I enjoy creating art that feels honest.

I’ve always enjoyed drawing and painting.
Although I studied commerce and started my career in a corporate role, I later chose to pursue art professionally and completed a Diploma in Fine Arts.

I like to explore different subjects and mediums, from landscapes and nature inspired paintings to portraits, and expressive contemporary work.
I don’t like limiting myself to one style or subject. I value each painting I create. Every piece reflects my time and patience. Whether it’s a quiet landscape, a contemporary portrait, or a traditional Indian subject, I approach each artwork with the same care and intention.
As an artist, I’m constantly evolving and allowing my practice to grow naturally rather than fitting into a single definition. My hope is to create work that feels meaningful, sparks curiosity, and finds a home with someone who connects with it.

For me, being an artist means staying curious, learning continuously, and creating with honesty. Every painting I finish becomes part of that journey, and I value each one for what it taught me and the story it carries.

I hope that when someone chooses one of my paintings, they aren’t just buying artwork,...
