MEET THE ARTIST

Hello, I’m Manpreet, a self taught Artist and an Educator.

Born and raised in East London, I moved with my parents and siblings to Greater London, Essex, just before my primary education was coming to an end. This was ‘home’ until I married and moved to South East London, where I lived within an extended family. After almost 11 years, my husband, two children and I moved to Kent where my Studio is also based.

My passion for art stems from the love of creating something beautiful and mesmerising from nothing except a spark of inspiration. From a young age I aspired to create art that encapsulates a sense of calm and wonder. However, it has only been in the last few years that I have pushed myself to pursue this ambition.

Although I have created art for as long as I can remember, I officially set up my Studio in 2020 as a sacred space to create. It is also when I set up the Mindful Drawing Initiative where I hope to inspire creativity and mindfulness within others through my guided Mindful Drawing Sessions.

Through my artwork I hope to bring joy to the hearts and homes of those that want and need to be surrounded by creativity and all things beautiful.

Each piece is inspired by healing and love. As I lean into the process of creating an artwork, the journey allows me to navigate my emotions and reconnect with my authentic self. Creating art has always been a meditative practice for me, grounding me and allowing myself to go inwards. My hope is that the immense peace that this brings me also transcends to those in the presence of my art.
