Acrylics Intermediate level Workshop

About the Artist:
Fatema is an artist from Mumbai and the subject that intrigues her the most is real life forms that exist around us because it is the birth place of every other artistic exploration and possibility.
She has studied English Literature and Psychology from St. Xaviers College, Mumbai. As an artist, she is largely self taught but has also done a short course in Portrait Painting from Sir JJ school of Arts, Mumbai. She is pursuing art practices like acrylic painting, oil painting full time.
The quality most appealing to her about acrylics is the medium’s nature to be fearless.
