Flowers communicate with me in their silent language. In 2020 when we went into lock-down, I started going for short walks before work in the morning. I started admiring flowers in people’s garden.
Beautiful big and small blooms in various colors and fragrances attracted my attention. I started clicking random pics on my phone. Soon I realized that I was not taking in all in with the camera. So I just started taking pause to admire them just with my eyes.
I guess these picture and the feelings stayed. I didn’t plan to paint flowers. They claimed their space on my canvas and I happily welcomed them.
Paradise Floral Art – Urvashi Art Studio
During winter months, I found myself painting more and more flowers. I even tried at one point to not paint them but they kind of appeared. My brush moved in that direction by itself.
So I decided, I am not going to force them out of my paintings.
I became so obsessed with flower arranging recently that I thought of myself as a florist. So I came up with a word Flor-tist (Floral Artist).
I now arrange flowers on canvas with paints.
With my floral art, I am creating endless joyful moments and I want to share that feeling with everyone. I feel I am trying to make flowers immortal as the separation from them after they wither away is unbearable.
I usually don’t need reference pictures as I always think of myself as a florist who will arrange the flowers in particular ways.
Jada-Floral Art – Urvashi Art Studio
I want to create flower art gifting a one of a kind experience that makes my collectors feel special when they receive them.
These floral art pieces will be a perfect gift to go along with fresh flowers.
I am currently doing a 100 days painting challenge and I paint one painting every day. On Day 17 at the moment. I am posting them daily on my Instagram @urvashiartstudio
