Hi, i'm Debasree
I’m a former IT engineer turned self-taught artist, leaving behind my white-collar job to pursue my passion for creativity. Art has always been a part of me—it’s my way of exploring emotions, embracing imperfection, and finding beauty in the unexpected.
Through my work, I love experimenting with textures, layering paper and fabric, and letting intuition guide my process. If you’ve ever felt stuck or hesitant to create, I want to remind you—art is for everyone. It’s not about perfect results; it’s about showing up, experimenting, and enjoying the journey.
That’s why I created this free creative playbook—to help you loosen up, try new techniques, and most importantly, have fun!
