I am Arti Chauhan, a self-taught Indian Artist,presently based in United Kingdom.
I started out my creative journey at the age of seven, creating faces and figures in pencil/ watercolors.However, life took its own course and art was restricted to a 'hobby' in years that followed. It was only in 2009 that I decided to follow my dreams and picked up my pencil and my brushes again.There has been no turning back, since then.
To me, Art is a not only a medium of expression, but also of communication.Using my pencil as a tool, I capture numerous known and unknown faces that comes across in my daily life; and try to bring them to life.Every line in a human face talks to me.That is the reason why you will see a lot of elderly peoples' drawings in my profile.They look beautiful,weathered and wise - and its a pleasure recreating them on paper.
Watercolor is another beautiful medium which I love to explore. My subjects usually consist of living beings- be them people or flowers.I have used Acrylic and Oils as well.My paintings are very close to "Realism" in sense of style; whatever be the medium.
The journey has just begun, its a long way to go.Its wonderful to have the love and support of people like you,
Thank you very much.
