About The Artwork

This is one of my larger works done in watercolour on 300 gsm cold press 100% cotton, rough grain Arches paper. This realistic painting stands out for its intricate details of expression and the features of the tribal woman's face and of her jewelry. For me it was a practice in patience and invoking my meditative quality while doing this work. The subject of the painting is a woman from the Brokpa community of the Dha Village of Ladakh - near Kashmir in India. Women in this community, apart from their traditional gear, wear flowers on their hats and this practice has earned them the sobriquet - the flower women of Ladakh. The dark aura of this powerful painting further highlights the benign expression of the old, weathered, yet wise face.

Anukta’s magical strokes breathe a symphony of the world around her, as she goes about celebrating life through her colors. The horizon of her works is beyond the boundaries of categorization. Just as many India(s) breathe within one India, having had a multi-city upbringing and career, Anukta gives an ode to that diversity through her works.   Ever inspired by the spaces she inhabits, the places she visits and the people she meets, her works are mostly personal insights and associations from the ordinary to the obvious. Colors, forms and lines play a special interest in her works done mostly in contemporary realistic style. Rising above from her corporate avatar of over a decade, Anukta bid adieu to her successful career and embarked on a new adventure to complete a two year online Diploma course in drawing and painting  with a certificate of distinction from the London School of Art, while also honing her skills through guidance from professional artists. For Anukta painting is not merely about the end result. in a world that is standing at the brink of chaos, Anukta believes in the redemptive power of art. Her strokes cast a magical spell of positivity and cheerfulness on the audience, reaching not only the heart but the very soul of those who take respite in art.  Anukta’s paintings have been exhibited in solo and group shows across India and abroad. Her paintings and commissioned projects adorn homes and corporate houses across India and worldwide in the US, UK, New Zealand and Dubai. Among her noted commissioned works are the ones for ITC Ltd., and Speciality Restaurants Ltd. ( London). At present her works can be viewed online through a renowned online Gallery in Paris or via her own website. Her works are also selected as a repository for viewing through Google Book and she owns the copyright of the images.
