Gayatri Manchanda

I was born in India in 1956. I am the wife of a diplomat in the Indian Foreign Service and have travelled and lived in many countries.

I started painting about 12 years ago and more or less taught myself. I work in watercolours and acrylics. I love to paint ordinary people in India going about their routine activities. I would describe my work as figurative and semi abstract.

I finished my schooloing in New Delhi and did my Masters in English Literature from Delhi University. I also have a degree in Education. I have exhibited in Sri Lanka, New Delhi and Toronto. ,
