Freelancer Visual Artist Sulakshana Devidas Dharmadhikari, born in 1975, in Pune, Maharashtra, and completed her education in Digital Electronics. But as she has keen interest in painting since her childhood and this draws her attention to paintings. From the beginning, she had an interest in the emotions of a woman and the beauty of nature. She realized both things are related to each other. She took her primary lessons from various senior artists and then equipped herself with different experiments. Today, she is working as a freelance artist for the last 13 years. Not only is she interested in Nature and emotions in human mankind but also in Buddha as well.
Artist's write-up for her paintings:
For nature paintings
Since ancient times, humans have always been inspired by Nature. Earlier, we lived very close to Nature in villages. Because of higher education, marriage, or better opportunities, people had to leave behind their hometowns and settle in the cities' concrete jungle. However, we often feel the urge to get close to Nature. Sometimes we coax ourselves into telling everything is okay by traveling, writing poetry, and painting. Everything on this earth is made of five elements. Humans are no exception. All the components in Nature, like colors, shapes, birds, and animals, have always inspired me. Especially the flowers and the gracefully wandering butterflies. Their beautiful colors have always fascinated me. That is what I've tried to depict through my painting. I've chosen oil on canvas as my medium. Through this, I've been able to portray the softness of flowers, butterflies' flexibility, and the texture of leaves.
For monotone
When we venture into our lives with baby steps initially and later run and juggle through life, we lose track of our life's mission or goal due to various obligations. Sometimes facing insurmountable difficulties, we lose hope. Suddenly there is a faint light blinking faintly at the end of the tunnel.
We get inspired by that; light is called "Hope". This light is always beside us, though invisible, slowly nudging us to move forward, just one step at a time. This striking bit of light, hope, I tried to capture in my painting like blue, red, and yellow in the backdrop of various shades is grey and black. Those colors are just a reminder that however bleak the situation is, there is always hope.
