Rukshana derives inspiration for her work from nature and the world around her, nature in its own self has always absorbed her expression in its beauty, its serenity and its solitude that transcends feelings beyond mortal boundaries. For Rukshana beauty holds no form, she endeavors to capture and create its essence on her easel…

Words by Rukshana…I am a perpetual student of learning, still a child, learning, un-learning and re-Learning, that quest for knowledge will forever remain. My Deepest Passion has always been my Art I and now I have chosen that as my medium of living. I also Love Music, and am totally lost in there which also inspires me to paint.. My Art Works are Semi Abstract, are eco-friendly and they speak volumes about nature and environment. My Medium is Mainly Charcoals, with Texture and Acrylics.. I feel my Paintings depict new Beginnings, a chance to re-live in the beauty and bask in the glory of nature…!!! Am totally blessed to have this opportunity to express myself through paintings. I love it when people say my artwork enhances their lives.”

Lines from an Art Critic : “Her subject is never a story but a lyrical and takes you in a world of fantasy which is sublime in nature.”
Whilst Viewing My Art-works turn on all your senses and let life make its impact on you..

Rukshana is a Semi Abstract Artist.
