Hey Friends!

I'm Smita Patkar from India. I'm a watercolour artist.
I have a special connection with nature which reflects in my paintings. I usually paint landscapes and flowers in watercolours.
I love the fluidity and transparancy of watercolours. I find it calming and relaxing like a meditation.
