Spotlight Artist 2026

Vineeta Dhillon

February 4 – March 3

As a watercolor artist, I seek to capture the lightness and joy I find in the world, translating these feelings onto paper with a colorful palette and delicate brushstrokes. My inspiration comes from observing the subtle beauty of everyday life.

My goal is to create art that evokes a sense of peace and optimism, offering viewers a moment of quiet delight. I primarily use watercolors, often enhanced with ink-assist, which allows me to explore both soft, flowing compositions and intricate details. This technique enables unique blend of whimsey and realism in my my work.

Through my art, I explore diverse subjects, including happy landscapes, enchanting florals, and evocative abstract compositions. Whether painting or illustrating children’s stories, my reason for creating is to share moments of beauty and wonder.
