Ketaki A

I am Ketaki, a multimedia artist and muralist based in the Bay Area, California. I'm actively involved in the local art community, where I’ve had the opportunity to organize and collaborate on various art initiatives. My work has been exhibited with the Sunnyvale Art Club, Silicon Valley Open Studios, and the Sunnyvale Chamber of Commerce. I’ve also coordinated and contributed to beautification projects at the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds, including painting three murals and an electrical box in San Jose. One of my proud moments was being selected to paint a live mural at the State of the City event in Sunnyvale.My artistic journey has led me through a variety of media, from watercolor and acrylic to ceramics and artistic cakes. With an engineering background, I bring a unique approach to my art, blending technical precision with creative expression.I have a passion for painting with alcohol inks and acrylic inks, embracing the serendipity of their fluid nature to create unique, organic patterns. I allow the inks to guide me, capturing emotions in my work, often layering them with the bold structure of acrylics to create dynamic compositions. I draw inspiration from the vibrant colors of my Indian heritage, the tones in nature, and the emotions they evoke.I also offer private and group art classes at my art studio in Sunnyvale.
