Bakkia’s artistic journey began in her early childhood when she could first distinguish figures, colors and textures. Since then, art has become part of her communication. Her continuous love towards nature carves her creativity and brings new perspective to life. She is a self-tutored visual artist and a post-graduate engineer and lawyer. She was born in a small affluent town called Karaikudi in Tamil Nadu, India and currently residing in the historic town called Greer in SC, USA. She is a versatile artist who has not limited her experimentation and exploration to a single medium. She mostly creates acrylic painting over a richly textured modeling layer and gives a 2D or 3D focal point to her subjects. Her experience of life, travel and culture shapes her art subject. Before starting a new project, she does a thorough analysis of the subject and tries to build a unique expression out of it. Most of her work represents co-existence and interdependence. She is a strong supporter of sustainable development and nature conservation.
