Priya Yabaluri is an artist who creates the masterpiece with her perspective and vision.


Art is unquestionably one of the purest and highest elements in human happiness. It trains the mind through the eye and the eye through the mind. Being an artist means you have the power to bring your imaginations and dreams to life. Artist Priya Yabaluri has perfectly channeled her inner artist to prove the above-mentioned lines true.

Founder of the brand ‘Art for Awareness’, Priya Yabaluri writes and publishes art magazines, books and also conducts art shows. Being from a science background, Priya got insights into the logical and illusional aspects of making a painting. She considers nature to be her prime source of inspiration which drives her to excel in her craft. To her, being an artist means that one needs to think differently and develop an eye and a perspective that would make your creation beautiful in its own way.

THE JOURNEY

Priya completed her (B.Sc.) from DAV College and later in Interior designing (PGDID), JNAFAU from Hyderabad which gave her a different perspective. These experiences gave her the logic and the illusion to pursue painting. Nature is the primary resource for her creativity. Later She continued her diploma course in Fine Art and Design from Hyderabad as her Artistic career took off.

 Her journey as an artist began in the early ’90s. She used to use her spare time painting and experimenting with various mediums of painting. She also took guidance from established artists. She started exhibiting in various art shows in India in the early 2000s.

In the last 20 years, she has participated in over 40 groups and solo Art shows in India and Abroad. She has exhibited in UK, Germany, Petersburg, Moscow, France, London, Paris, and Dubai and in Mumbai, New Delhi, Hyderabad, Guwahati, and Pune. But she has a will to explore more geographically and learn more about art and culture globally.

Challenges
“When the going gets tough, the tough get going", says Priya and explains how women entrepreneurs from across sectors sailed through the challenging COVID-19 times to make an impact. She went on to publish one of her E‐art magazines “lockdown art‐ A journey “reflecting the works of art created during the lockdown by various Contemporary artists.

She has also conducted 3D Virtual Art exhibitions for Contemporary artists. The biggest apprehensions and fears for Priya have been that she was already married and had 2 growing up sons, their education and she had to fulfill the duties of a mother.
 She needed to distribute her time to her family and passions constructively and as a new entrant as an artist, she had to struggle hard. Learning new skills to present her work in the most acceptable ways, she had to establish her style and it took a while for her to be in the flow and enjoy success.  
Talking about her vision, she says, " In the future, I want to create an art society which takes care of artistic needs and encourages new skills in the children of our country"
