Ambika Thiagarajan
When I learnt that something I’m extremely passionate about and something that also happens to be my full-time job, Art, will be used as a means of making the world a better place by bringing awareness to various causes, I didn’t think twice about joining the team. I have immensely enjoyed being a teacher for the community as I get to interact with fellow Art enthusiasts and learn from others. What I particularly love about it is the fact that I have a consistent set of people I get to see and paint with during this pandemic, an intense period of isolation and uncertainity.
