Vikashini Palanisamy
Artist & Founder of Golden Trees Creations
Art is my meditative tool - each creation springs from the synergy of mind and happiness
My canvases burst with celebrations of color, deeply rooted in my Indian heritage. Though I trained as an engineer at Cambridge University, my artistic journey blossomed through self-discovery in acrylics and mixed media.
Inspired by masters like Van Gogh and Monet, as well as contemporary artists Iris Scott and Justin Gaffrey, I've developed a signature style using palette knives to create vibrant, textured works with stunning 3D effects.
