About
Neelu Amar started painting in kindergarten, since then art has been her passion in life. She grew up in India and her artwork shows the influence of Indian culture. The use of bright & bold color palette is her creative style, and her work shows and expresses a sense of human emotions & feelings. Art is like therapy to her, a meditative process that encourages creativity and self-expression as vehicles to reduce stress, improve self-esteem, and increase awareness. In fact, she believes most of the exercises rely not on the final product you create but on the therapeutic, meditative ritual of the creative process.
She has been painting in a realistic style, but for the past few years she is experimenting with realistic abstract art and loving it. She has been using all types of mediums to express her creativity, sketching, painting, graphic arts, and photography. However, painting has always been what she enjoyed most.
She has done her Bachelors & Masters in fine arts from India and Associate degree in visual communication from Austin. She works full time job along with continuing her passion being an artist as well as teaching arts in all mediums to all age groups. She also works voluntarily as an artist mentor with people with special needs. she is busy exploring her passion, painting, and is enjoying creating beauty out of it.
She's been living in Austin TX almost two decades with her loving husband, two amazing kids, and a sweet dog.
