Pooja Khnna

Hi, I am Pooja Khnna.

I am a left handed artist and have been painting for 20 years now. Qualified as a Post Graduate in Computer Science, I found my passion in painting.
Painting turned into a profession through graphics designing, where I realised that I could pour my creativity into designs. Today, I have exhibited my creations in various towns and cities like, Aurangabad, Pune, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Goa, Nashik, Beed, Jalna as an individual artist as well as a part of a group.

I have been an active member of UGAM group of artists in Aurangabad, with a great team, and I have done most of the exhibitions as well. UGAM is an all women artists group who spread social messages like Female Foeticide (save girl child) through the form of art. We, recently, conducted a special exhibition on the occasion of Women's Day on the theme 'Save Girl Child' and donated those paintings to leading Gynaecologists and Maternity hospitals in the city to create awareness.

Trained more than 40 students in the year, 2020-2021, my work ranges from mediums like portraits, charcoal, dry crayons, pencil colors, acrylics and water colors. Also, canvas paintings aside, I also paint fabrics like Kurtis, Sarees, T-shirts, Bedsheets during themed events, for which I do take orders too !

My experiences as an artist also include Portrait Workshops (Dec 2019 - January 2020), at places like boutiques and cafes that I was associated with to be promoted. Also, I have used my available time to conduct workshops on 'SOCIAL MEDIA' for women.

Passion aside, on a personal level, I like to indulge in writing, with situational comedy being my forte (one liners, punch lines). I have been invited to judge in various extracurricular competitions (Dandiya, Mehendi), as well as have had the privilege of holding the position of Vice-Chairperson of the All - Image Management, Aurangabad Chapter for the year 2020-21.
