Swapnasrushti
Swapnasrushti is an illustration brand and a creative hub, where we hope to expand knowledge and creative expertise across all endeavours. The word 'Swapnasrushti' is a Sanskrit word, which literally translates to 'creation of dreams' . This venture is a long time dream and most paintings here have a flavour of dream worlds inspired by nature's beauty, thus, justifying the word choice !
We wish and try to motivate several other art enthusiasts' journeys by sharing the tiny bag of skills learnt over the years, through this venture as a way of giving back and helping more creative minds to enjoy the essence of this beautiful art world.
As an amateur artist, Rakshitha's main medium is soft and heavy body Acrylics and sometimes plays around with oils! She also has a bit of exposure to watercolours and gouache . Her main genre is imaginary landscapes and very closely followed by seascapes and snowscapes. She also loves to try different things like fluid art,florals, traditional Indian art styles like waarli, abstract and unique things like her 3D painting .

Rakshitha Ravi
Rakshitha Ravi (first name pronounced as Ruck-She-tha!) was born and brought up in India, until she moved to Montreal, Canada, in 2018 as a hobbyist artist, to study at McGill University and pursue a career in Machine Learning.She has a worked a bit in the intersection of painting, computer vision and robotics in the industry as well as in academia
Her first memory of art dates back to her three and a half year old self sitting on her grandfather’s lap and drawing tomatoes! It was soon followed by various levels of training from the best professionals around her , in different styles and mediums, till she stepped into high school, and the journey till then helped her be a part of several regional, zonal and national competitions.
The turning point of her artistic career came right after high school, when she started capturing her imaginary colourful landscapes on canvas, with an art style she had never seen before. She believes that a random combination of strokes that look good together comes naturally when she starts a piece of work with the help of some sort of divine grace. That’s when she realized, she is blessed with a skill that fills her with so much happiness and satisfaction.
Her transition from a hobbyist artist to an amateur one happened with the launch of Swapnasrushti in January 2019.
