Rohini Galore Introduction



I believe art has no boundaries. I am basically a self-taught artist and I like to experiment with different forms of art. I love experimenting with different art genres. When the entire world sleeps I am up and running putting my imaginations into the canvas. I love to draw pencil sketching,folk arts (Madhubani, kalamkari, phad painting, warli paintings) fashion illustrations, portraits, urban sketching, dot painting, doodle art. 

 1) Madhubani: Madhubanipainting is from Mithila region of Bihar in India and Nepal. I find Madhubani paintings quite fascinating as it is done with brushes,black pens and using lovely bright colours and is characterized by eye-catching geometrical patterns. Madhubani paintings represent Indian culture. It needs a great amount of effort,time and dedication to the artists to create one single painting. 

 2) Kalamkari: Kalamkari is an ancient style of hand painting done on cotton or silk and paper. Kalamkari word is derived from a Persian word where ‘kalam’ means pen and ‘Kari’ refers to craftsmanship. The artworkwas done by using a pen. In India , its origin is Andhra Pradesh. 

3) Phad painting: phad painting is a folk art of Rajasthan(India). This style is traditionally done on a long piece of cloth or canvas. Which contain the narratives of the folk deities of Rajasthan.

4) Warli painting: warli painting is a tribal art mostly done by adivasi from north Sahyadri range in India. It is one of the gorgeous folk art of Maharashtra. They use a very basic graphic for this painting like a circle, a triangle and a square. These ancient painting especially do on the wall of the hut on a special occasion. The colours used were not permanent.only white colours areused on a red ochre background. It is usually produced by the tribal females. 

My early life and education: my childhood spend in Dehradun(India) with my parents after that I went to BHU(Banaras HinduUniversity) Varanasi for my graduation. After that, I completed my pg in jewellery designing course at Surat(Gujarat) is a hub of diamonds and textile industry. I am a gemologist and a jewellery designer by profession and an artist by choice. 

Here is some name of big artists there work inspires me a lot. 

1) S.H.Raza: I find Raza’s work quite inspiring as he creates a geometrical masterclass.
2) Suhas das: I find his paintings are very colourful and very fascinating with beautiful detailing. 
3) Romi lerda: I like her paintings of a girl,she uses bold colours, flowers and butterflies. 
4) Cherie Roe Dirksen: I love her paintings of beautiful poppies with beautiful eye-catching background.

Renuka Art Galore Introduction


Art is a powerful medium which we can use to express ourselves without saying a word. Through art we can transport people to a different world. It has a great power to bring immense joy to a person and gloomiest sorrow at the same time. Different people see art differently.

It’s a very beautiful form of expression that has been used by humans from the very ancient times. The universe itself is a big canvas and the God is the finest artist. An artist finds beauty in everything. Whether it’s lush green grass, wandering thunderous clouds, dry crispy leaves, animals, flowers anything.

From the paintings in caves we have come to the modern and contemporary art. It’s a long beautiful journey in art world.

Art is like a mirror of your thoughts. What you think comes out through your paintings. So the artists are here to create magic and paint the world with their tools.


ABOUT MYSELF:


My name is Renuka Singh Saxena. I was born in Dehradun, India. Now living in the capital, New Delhi with my family. From the early age I had a liking for art, but started to take it seriously only since 2013.

I am basically self taught artist. I draw my inspirations from watching different artists’ works. Most of my works are done with pencils. I use graphite pencils and charcoals mainly. Below are my descriptions of different forms of art which I generally use.

1- PORTRAITS: Portraits are quite difficult to draw. But once when you get to know the tricks and learn the art with practice you will be master in it.

2- CARICATURES: Caricatures are made to give some satirical effects to the subjects. I make sure that my caricatures are made in such a way that brings a big smile on the faces.

3- FASHION ILLUSTRATIONS: This is one of my favorite arts. Some simple lines, few strokes with tinge of colors and most importantly free hand that's all you need for fashion illustrations.

4- URBAN SKETCHING: Urban sketching is a wonderful art. You can do it with the most minimal of tools. You can enjoy it doing anywhere and everywhere. You just need to learn some tricks and methods for it.

5- PEN AND INK: This is the most low cost form of art making. You just need a pen and paper for it and you are ready to make art. It’s just all about some simple tips and techniques on how to have fun with your pens.

6- CHILDREN’S ILLUSTRATIONS: How can we forget our beloved children? As a mother of two kids myself I am always having a mind full of cute drawings for kids which they love and can relate easily.

Remember we all are born artists. We all have done some doodling and sketchings in the back of our copies during our school times. It’s not very difficult to learn. We just need that passion, that excitement which drives us crazy about on just thinking of doing drawings and sketchings.
