Art is a journey with many folds: the more you learn… the yearning to learn more intensifies.
Megha Mathur is a hobbyist turned full time artist. She has passionately pursued art and craft right from her childhood. She has double Bachelors degree in Arts and Education and has had a career as a teacher and briefly as a Real Estate agent in Singapore. She is a qualified Art Curator. She has worked through many mediums and materials for her creative artworks. She loves to paint with acrylics, doing figurative, folk art and mixed media mostly. Her paintings depict her thoughts in abstraction form and contemporary styles.
She promotes Up- cycling, unused and waste materials to create various art forms. She has contributed to the community through the Passion Arts Festival 2016 where she has taught bottle paintings to many community children. In 2017, she was appreciated for setting up a recycling booth for a community club.
She has also co-organized and participated in an art Exhibition, Symphony in Colours in February 2017, an exhibition created for local emerging artists. Megha started a community of artists called Love for Art (www.facebook.com/LoveForArt_ sg).This community group organizes workshops, exhibitions and meet-ups for upcoming artists and crafters.

Megha exhibited her contemporary artwork in a group exhibition’ Artscape’ at SOTA (School of the Arts) Singapore.
