" Painted from my roots. Carried across the world."
If
" On this special day. I share a piece that holds the soul of my origin, Odisha.
Thank you so much Atul sir, for always challenging our creative boundaries . I will always be thankful for all the support and guidance through out this art journey..π
This piece of work is more than a visual. It carries memories, culture and the quiet strength of where I come from.
It feels even more meaningful to share this today, as a tribute to my roots, especially when this work found its place in Fabriano Acquarello in watercolor 2026 exhibition in Italy.
And what is Odisha without it's soul...
This piece titled as " Abhada " ,the sacred offering of Puri, is not just food. It is devotion, culture, equality and emotion served together. πβ€οΈ
For every Odia, it is a feeling that connects us back to our roots.
A small tribute to the land that continues to live within me, no matter where I go.
Bande Utkala Janani π€β€οΈ
Those who have experienced "Abhada" will understand.
Grateful, Grounded, Connected..β¨
