Hey there. I am so glad you made it here. Welcome to Kore Canvas!

 

Let me start by introducing myself — I’m Priyanka, I work as a software consultant and I’m an artist from India. I mainly work and learn with acrylics, gouache and watercolors, although I try everything if given the chance. 

 I have wanted to make a website just for the heck of it for a long but I had no ideas for what I could put up on it. Finally I decided that a platform of my own for my art and opinions would be a great start to a future idea.

I have been thinking about a name for my art pursuits for… maybe a couple of years now. Didn’t want anything with my name in it. I didn’t want to limit it to a particular mood either. Open to possibilities, let’s say. 

In Marathi, my native tongue, koré (कोरे) means ‘blank’. When I started learning Japanese, one of the very first words I learned was the word これ (koré) meaning ‘This’. I really liked saying it. It sounded nice. Kore also could be read as a play on the English word ‘core’. Combine this with canvas — my primary method of expression, and you got a name that is vague enough but also quite personal! 

What I want to start it as is a record. Not just mine but anything related to art that I find inspiring. I have a lot of plans for the future for art, mine and anyone else’s. And I hope I can do that and more. In one of my articles I wrote how I wanted to change how people interact with art and how they view or experience it. It seems like a lofty goal but you have to start somewhere. This is where I start.

Please — take a look around and stroll through the Gallery, peruse some articles by yours truly. And if you have read till this point and you know me, please do me a favor.

 Let me know what you think of it all. Follow me on Instagram and send me a DM.
