Nishi Kumar is an artist of a new generation. She uses a digital tablet and Adobe software to sketch her designs before ever touching a paint brush. Rare Austin Magazine likens her early work to Edgar Degas. A warm color palette unites her works. Like the artist herself, her subject is a blend of East and West. Ballerinas in motion are common in her work. When I asked if she had studied dance, she quickly responded “no”.

Canvas Press printed an 18″ by 24″ Gallery Wrapped print of Kumar’s Liquid Emotion, the original was 30″ x 24″ oil on canvas, for her March 26^th show.

Any art work can be reproduced by scanning or photographing. If the original is larger than 8.5″ by 11″, it must be photographed by our photographer Caroline or scanned on a large bed scanner.  Art reproducts are much less expensive than originals and custom-sized.  Artists are not restricted to painting sizes that sell well.  Reproductions free the artist to focus on their work and enable easier distribution.  Canvas Press can ship to clients while the artist places the order.
