7 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN ART INDUSTRY
My name is Ompriti Sahoo and I am a professional artist and teacher. I primarily paint canvas art and large scale murals. When I am not painting live on stage and curating art installations at festivals and events, I am sharing my passion for Deliberate Creation through. I believe that if you can get there in your mind, you can get there in your body, and that is the message I hope to spread through all forms of my art.
Although my art and creative expression take form in a variety of different mediums, painting and public speaking have become the primary focus of my work. Whether I am using words or paint, my intention is to illustrate my perception of the connection between the energy we project through our thoughts, words, and feelings, and the physical realities we experience. Each painting is a new opportunity to bring this message to life, and I invite the universe to guide me.
We must remember that most portrait paintings were made before photography was invented. So, while people could look in mirrors, they had no way of knowing what people they had not met looked like. Many portraits, especially of women and girls, were made so potential husbands could see them before they agreed to marry them. They were also made to commemorate a recent wedding or even an early death to not forget what the deceased person looked like.
