About the Artist

I am Mekhla Salimani, long time resident of Loudoun county, artist, and architect. My art is inspired by the natural beauty around me, and the vibrant Indian culture. 

I have been painting ever since I remember and have channeled it to support local charities since Covid19. My art is exhibited at public libraries and I was featured in the Leesburg Lifestyle magazine, titled 'Gifted and Giving'. I exhibit and sell at bookstores, art fairs, farmers markets and art auctions for a cause. I have been teaching classes and group events.

I enjoy exploring various mediums, watercolors and acrylics are my favorite. Watercolor is not to be controlled which is its very beauty and I love the freedom of expressions it offers. Acrylics allow me to experiment with deep, bold colors and textures. It's a beautiful journey, excitement and challenge all along. Art to me is therapeutic, and I hope to spread the joy in every way I can.
