Vanaja Mulagada

I come from an artistic family. My father is a well known artist in southern India, and encouraged me to develop my artistic skills from a young age. I moved to Portland in 1997 and Portland has become my home away from home. I was focused on raising a family, but I am now dedicating my time to paint once again. I enjoy the scenic beauty of Oregon where I often capture photographs to paint.
I have experience painting in watercolors,acrylic and oil , but now mainly I work on watercolor and acrylic. My paintings are often inspired by the beauty of nature and my Indian culture. Aside from painting, I often use my creative skills to decorate for local cultural events.
