Shruti Vij

Gurugram-based artist Shruti Vij is a product of the prestigious National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT), New Delhi, and is an art enthusiast, a painter with a distinct individual style. Always an avid follower of art, the artist herself acknowledges art as her true calling when, she decided to plunge her head into the world of painting.
Originally a leather designer by profession, Shruti blends her artistic skills with her experiences in the fashion field, bringing about a perfect marriage of her two passions. Art paved the way for her to express her feelings and experiences in no other way she had experienced before. She terms it as therapeutic and a healing process. Painting for her is a passion and not a mere vocation that gives her an outlet to express her innermost feelings by creating a colourful world. Shruti’s art is not limited by style or technique. She likes to leave it free. It is about what touches her heart. The common element that runs through all her works is beauty that appeals to everyone and puts a smile on the viewer's face. During the past few years, Shruti has participated in many art shows, mostly in and around Delhi and has won great appreciation from art lovers and critics alike. She has an art studio by the name of Shruti Arts.
