Smruti's new website


With the new year come many new things but unlike most resolutions, Smruti Maniar's new site will be operational and awesome for a long time after this post. That's a great thing too hear! If you haven't already checked out Smruti's work, she does excellent modern and classical-style (I wanted to say "vintage") Indian art.

You can see her older work in a post I did in August, or mosey on over to her site and see newer and more comprehensive work:

Smruti Maniar, artist


I had the pleasure of meeting Smruti Maniar during my brief stay in New Jersey a few weeks ago. Smruti is an amazing artist, specializing in folk and modern Indian art. Below are samples of her past work. I had the good fortune to also see a different body of work that's in her family's collection and it blew me away. Smruti also did Henna (temporary body tattoo) for a good friend of ours (Vidya) for her recent wedding - more to come on that this month!

You can see more of Smruti's recent exhibition here. She also has plans of releasing a new website in the near future, so I'll keep you informed.
