About the Exhibit
Central Library proudly hosts emerging young artist, Deesha Agrawal for an exhibit of artwork in our Tween Lounge, located in the 3rd floor Youth Area.
My art is inspired from animals and nature. Texture and symmetry are always considered for each art inspiration, making the painting come to life. I use watercolors, modeling paste, acrylic paints and many household materials in creating my artwork.
This exhibit focuses on a "Spirit Animal book series" that has 15 great beasts, 4 of whom are reborn as spirit animals to 4 kids. Images in the exhibition will also include Briggan the Wolf, Uraza the Leopard, Jhi the Panda, and Essix the Falcon, the Evertree, Mulop the Octopus, Dinesh the Elephant and Nianani the Swan.
About the Artist
My name is Deesha Agrawal. I was born in Dallas on March 12th, 2012. I have loved art since I was born. I would create jewelry, paint on canvas, and knit. I sold my first art creation when I was 6 years old. My art is inspired by patterns, textures, nature and animals.
I love reading books. I want to create an art installation from my imagination and the description of the book - Spirit Animals. I like this series as kids work together to save the world. I hope my art will inspire kids to read and think that each one of us can save the world.
