Creations by Geeta A name itself is easy to follow….isn’t it? A proud self taught artist came into existence during pandemic of 2020-2021.An individual who is holding degrees like , IATA, MPM,M.A( Psychology) and has wide experience in the respective field was sitting at home during lockdown doing nothing. A person inside me was not letting me sit idle and doing household work. I always had a charm about painting but except an Elementary exam in 1989-1990 there was absolutely no connect to the drawing/painting looking at the professions I handled. I never ever got a chance to pursue this hobby even in my free time then. Lockdown of 2020 was really irksome….I was not getting satisfying answers from my own thoughts that how should I keep myself busy? One fine day, I just started scribbling on the drawing book I had at home and started enjoying it whatever I was doing Now, if I look back last year was kind of funny and joyful times ( I cannot say journey here as I have just started my journey) where I first started from Zentangles / Doodling / Mandala Art… then I thought why not try painting? But only question was that how will I do it when I don’t know the basics even? ‘Thanks to YouTube’ ….surfed many artists tutorials, started seeing their styles but I only watched them online. Then I thought I will refer photos and I should start painting…. So many canvases were out of business…. My first ever acrylic painting of Eiffel tower on comparatively bigger canvas was so deprived that I was almost sure that I am not going to make this happen. But I wanted to still try. I practiced more and more whenever I got time. Finally, in NOV 2020 I held my first ever in person art show when government had loosened up the lockdown for 2-3 months. Art show was with a floating crowd of approximately 100 people. Since my other business of travel freelancing is completely down due to Covid-19, I am happy with myself that painting has given me new horizons!! **** Be So good that no one can ignore you **** .
