Colours and design have inspired me for as long as I can remember. Even while pursuing Engineering and excelling academically, I always found myself drawn back to anything creative.

After graduating, I began my career in IT and earned recognition for my work, but art remained my anchor. I continued painting, explored French language and culture, trained formally in fine arts, and was awarded first place across all branches for my skill.

In the 2020 lockdown period, I completed 100+ commissioned artworks and built my brand, Art Strokes by Ayushi Kakkar, creating portraits, décor pieces, logos, and other crafts. Through collaborations and social media, I’ve continued to grow—still guided by the same love for colours that sparked everything.
