Though mostly self taught she was fortunate to train under some highly skilled and successful artists during her travels around the world. Her works are impressionistic interpretations and representation of her multicultural experiences. She explores these subjects in vibrant colors through oils and watercolors-ink drawings.
She has found life in flowers that brought her to paint lovely paintings of flowers from our backyard, to park we visiting in our childhood, to gifting some of our teenage crushes and used for wedding decorations.

Vijeta – Vision
Vijeta has a vision in the paintings and making an eye for perfection, it’s only to have an opthalmologist understand why it was important to have eyes and the vision behind it. My meeting with Dr. T. P. Lahane was very short and he just said any patient that needs help with his vision I am there as them to meet me and refer your name. Vijeta seems to have understood the bionic eye and the 3D printed eye are not so far away and if any doctors get inspired by these lovely paintings of the eye and the vision of view.
And why doctors can’t be artist well there is plenty of ideas and thought a doctor can bring to his canvas, lets have an inclusion of everyone can be an artist and artist can come from anywhere. Vijeta is from UP and has an inspiring vision.
