Hello,
An interview with an artist, Maheswari Janarthanan, who is a dreamer, traveler, illustrator, designer, and photographer based in Chennai, India.
A self-taught illustrator, she wants to bring out her magical experiences in life through her art. Her love for the universe and the magical, miraculous, and mystical things hidden within every human being fascinate and inspire her to portray them in her drawings. Her desire and goal is to keep creating something that inspires people and herself.
Her imagination is mystical and different, and her works are mostly based on dreams, magic, love, life, and the universe.
She also creates products under the name “little one’s doodles”.
A simple girl with a dream to travel around the world and create art.
