STAR"TISTS SPRING FLOWERS ISSUE | Page 92

STAR: How did your artworks become fa- mous? ANUJA.S: Social media played an important part and provided a platform for me to spread my work among family and friends. Other than that participat- ing in events and exhibitions related to art also drew people more towards my work. STAR: Could you tell us some interesting facts about your life? ANUJA.S: The more I got involved with art the more I started appreciating art, not only my work but other people’s work also inspired me. Being a home- maker and pursuing my dream as an artist was also a challenge but the support and appreciation gave me the strength to keep working on my dream. STAR: What’s integral to the work of an artist? ANUJA.S: Passion and Vision. When I am working on my painting, I’m not aware of what I’m doing. It is only after a while I am comfortable with my chosen subject and work period that I see what I have created and accomplished. It’s a constant effort that builds the confidence in artist and quality of art. STAR: What are your future plans about your art? ANUJA.S: In the near future, I am planning to ex- hibit in and around Mumbai and perhaps abroad too. I have buyers around the world and I am glad my works are being liked by the art lovers. 92
