Featured Artist of the Month: Medha Karandikar
September – October 2024
Medha Karandikar is a self-taught artist working in multiple media and styles. Her work has featured in several galleries in and around Knoxville, and for ten years at the erstwhile James-Ben Gallery and Art Center in Greenville, TN. Medha has also shown in a couple of galleries in California.
Drawing is her strong suit, and the use of vivid colors is the hallmark of her paintings. She brings to her work the colors and sensibilities of her home country, India. Collage is a medium that Medha has explored extensively. She mingles collage with her drawings and paintings to create intriguing abstract and figurative work.
She says that her best work has always started with an absent-minded doodle.
Many of her works are featured on her website: www.medhaonline.com
