About Shveta Saxena:
Shveta Saxena is a New Delhi based artist who finds inspiration in all of nature’s creations and pours out her love for the same on canvas. She has won acclaim in international art events in Taiwan and Dubai. Her painting has also been selected to be installed as a print version in the major transportation channel, The Delhi Metro service.
She is immensely in love with ocean art and has made a photo realistic collection called ‘Ocean Hues’. This is also her key interest and is an ongoing series that she loves to work on. The dynamism of the ocean and its vibrant aqua colours create a mystique and beauty that cannot be surpassed by any other subject. Shveta tries to capture various moods through the ever-changing waves of the ocean and hopes that people will have more admiration and responsibility towards nature conservation and keeping its resources intact.
She also has a special fascination for human faces as is reflected in her collection called ‘Face of Life’. She not only loves to experiment with various techniques and has used palette knives instead of brushes to create some paintings in this collection but also loves to experiment with realistic portraits with the eyes being the strongest feature.
Another collection of hers, ‘Floral Realism’ explores realism in floral paintings and is in continuation with her fascination for all the beautiful things that Nature has to offer. Shveta firmly believes that perfection in Art is something that only be strove for but can never be achieved. She has made it her mission to keep striving for that ever-elusive perfection so that each painting of hers reflects the best that she has to offer.
