Ketki Fadnis is an artist from Pune, India and works from her home studio. She works in multiple media like Acrylic, Watercolour, Mixed-media and Collage. She is a Post Graduate in Management and also holds a Diploma in Textile Design. She turned her passion into profession and has been displaying her art in multiple group exhibitions.
Being self taught, she believes, painting is an intriguingly personal process.
Describing her genre of work, she finds inspiration primarily from nature and its creations. Her intuitive style to juxtapose mark-making, shapes and patterns over the abstract backgrounds, makes a unique story. Her paintings are impressions of life experiences, memories, imagination and observation of nature, creating her own visual vocabulary. Painting is meditative and helps her to express and balance.
She strives to spread smiles and provide moments of happiness by touching the lives of people through her creations.
