Artist of the Month: Yesha Panchal

Yesha’s work calls attention to the beauty of nature that often goes unnoticed, particularly petals, stems, plants and other elements of nature which continuously fuel my inspiration. The exaggerated forms, colors, and textures in her work are derived from my experience of being in nature, where she feel most connected to herself and her surroundings. As one explores the intimate details of her work, she would like to emphasize that she intends to encourage viewers to observe the minute details of all aspects.
