"I work in many mediums, with a goal to liberate color and lines from being purely descriptive to becoming free and expressive – suggesting emotion rather than a simple documentation of what the eye sees. I let the imaginative process conceive abstraction with energy, color, and feeling.
My art is informed and inspired by travels around the world as well as every-day events in daily life. While my works range from portraits and still-lifes to abstracts, my preference is for semi-abstracts that allow creative freedom while still conveying some form."

Jayshree started painting over 35 years ago. She earned a B.A. in Fine Arts from the prestigious Sir J. J. School of Arts of the University of Bombay, India in 1980. Concurrent with her pursuit of a degree in Fine Arts, Jayshree completed a B.A. in Economics from University of Bombay in 1979. At this point, her interest in business trumped her love of painting, and she went to the U.S. for graduate studies, earning an M.S. in Advertising from Northwestern University, Evanston, IL.

Jayshree participates in exhibitions on an on-going basis, most of them in Texas area galleries. Many of her works have received awards and prizes and she consistently gets recognition for her work. For more information, please visit JVfinearts.com
