Illustrator Arati Devasher creates colourful artwork inspired by a deep love of nature and dogs. Both are amply represented in her work.

Her primary medium is gouache on paper with an overlay of pencils. She also works in acrylics and draws digitally too. Arati’s palette is deeply influenced by her rich Indian heritage of colour and pattern.

Arati works from her home studio in Ruislip. Her illustrations also feature on prints, cards, mugs, teatowels and other homewares all sustainably made in the UK. Commissions are welcome.

Mixed Media Artist

Having lived in Kenya, UK, Singapore and India, Ketna has been widely acclaimed for converting her Global insights into a compelling visual vocabulary that has injected a fresh counter expression to the predominantly western dominated narrative of World Art.

Using different cultures and historical events, Ketna juxtaposes mythological characters, Gods, political icons and the common man on the same canvas. There is a fresh romance between the old and the new, breaking through stringent cultural, political, and class boundaries that have dominated the world for centuries.

This colourful and confident visual language has been applied onto Art, Fashion, Furniture … virtually on any surface imaginable!

Painter / Jeweller

Shalini describes herself as a ‘Creative Experimentalist.’ She says, ‘For me creativity is a journey of experimentation and exploration. The process is as important as the end result. Whether it’s painting, digital design or jewellery making, I rarely start with a preconceived idea. I like to see where the material and momentum take me.’

Talking about her work Shalini says, ‘As a contemporary artist, I enjoy still life, abstract, figurative, landscape work and stylised portraiture. In my still life paintings, I like playing with intense areas of light and shade and contrasting that with the subtlety of translucent objects like glass vases and ornaments. Recently I have found old doors very interesting subjects to paint. As an artist I find the intriguing duality of what lies beyond or what lies within fascinating. Capturing the character and personality of an old weather-beaten door is like portraiture. Every scar, scrape, groove and ornament provide endless opportunity for visual story telling.

I use a mix of acrylic paint, liquid charcoal, graphite pencil and high pigment inks to create textural and visual layering in my paintings. I also work in watercolour and gouache.’

Shalini is passionate about design and has a love for all things handmade, jewellery being one of them. Shalini has created her own jewellery brand called HUTKE – a collection of statement gemstone jewellery. Each piece is original and handmade to order in limited edition. Shalini enjoys creating bespoke statement pieces and describes her jewellery as ‘Wearable Art’.
