ARTY GUAVA

Feeling a mix of emotions as one of my original paintings finds a new home. 🎨💖 So proud and validated, yet there’s a bittersweet goodbye. Part of creation is letting go, allowing art to live its own story. Whenever that not-so-nice voice creeps in, questioning the worth of my art, I’ll remember this moment to quiet it down. Grateful for every collector who finds a connection with my work. On to new horizons! ✨ #artistoninstagram #originalpaintings #artcollectors #acrylicpainting #floralpainting #stilllife

Today is the 12.12, and guess what? It’s my birthday! YAY! I wanted to commemorate this special day by taking a moment to express gratitude for being where I am today.

🌷 The two flower sellers 🌷 Two flower sellers, side by side, In blooms and petals, their stories hide.

🌸this is a gentle reminder to prioritise breaks 🌸 I took a midweek pause to connect with nature with my Sipster bottle @theplatedproject . For me, self-care is about staying active and giving my mind a break. A healthy body and mind fuel my creativity and help me create my best work. In my 20s, I used to think sacrificing my physical and mental health was part and parcel of being a dedicated artist/designer. I thought I had to suffer to create my best work. In my mind, it was an industry standard that I had to live up to. Working till I fell sick or pulling an all-nighter and still showing up to work the next day was just the norm. But now, older and wiser, I know nothing is more important than a healthy body and a calm mind. Give me a 🙌 if you agree. . . . . #selfcare #artistlife #midweekbreak #mentalhealth #inspiredbynature #artinspiration #artdaily #adayinthelife

🙏 Help me name this piece of Art✨ Hey beautiful people... As you all know, I’m not the best with words. I’m drawing a blank when it comes to naming this piece of art. Hoping we can brainstorm some names together. Please share any immediate words or feelings that pop up—it would be immensely helpful. I would be eternally grateful! ❤️ arty guava . . . . . #CreativeCommunity #ArtisticJourney #untitledart #ArtInspiration #CreativeProcess #ArtisticSupport #artreveal #inthestudio #painterlife #artreels #InspirationThroughArt #dailyart

🎨 Getting Into the Groove 🖼️ Like running, if I don’t paint for a while, I lose my stamina. My hands forget the feel of brush on canvas. To be honest, I can’t remember the last time I worked on a painting. So as not to pull a muscle, I start with a tiny canvas to build up my confidence again. Thank you for watching the creation of The Guava Girl. I can’t wait to show you how she unfolds. 🌿🎨 . . . . #artjourney #paintingprocess #backtopainting #artistlife🎨 #tinycanvas #buildingconfidence #GuavaGirl #artinprogress #dailyart #artisticgrowth #inthestudio #painterlife #artreels #InspirationThroughArt

✨The Inspiration Behind The Rainkeeper ✨ 💦 Today, I’d like to share the inspiration behind this illustration. Reflecting on my relationship with water, I realize how fortunate I am to live where clean water is abundant and accessible. 🏺 In many parts of the world, the responsibility of fetching water traditionally falls to women, symbolizing their role as sustainers of life within the family. ❤️Many daily tasks performed by women go unseen and unrecognized. I wanted to highlight their contributions by depicting the symbolic act of fetching water. 💌 Every drop they carry tells a story of dedication, love, and the unyielding spirit of women everywhere. _ It’s extra meaningful to me that with every Sipster purchase, 100 bottles of water are donated to Bundelkhand, one of the most drought-prone regions in India. I’m so happy to create meaningful change through my art. 🌟💧 As always, stay hydrated. #Sipster #ThePlatedProject #ArtForGood #HydrationWithPurpose #MakeADifference #ArtForChange #SupportWomen #TheRainkeeper #ArtWithPurpose

🌺 June Delight 🌸 June brings sunshine, skies so blue, Flowers bloom with morning dew. Melons ripen, lemons glow, Days grow longer, nights are sweet, Summer’s magic at our feet. Butterflies and bees take flight, Stars wink softly through the night. Beauty comes in every size, June’s delight fills all our eyes. . . . . . #ArtInJune #SummerVibes #NatureInspired #ArtisticExpressions #PoetryAndArt #summermagic #SeasonalArt #visualpoetry #creativejourney #ArtLovers #EverydayBeauty #ArtisticSoul #NatureArt #SummerJoy
