I am Sumi, an artist with a deep love for nature, imagination, and the unreal world. Ever since I was a child, I have been drawn to painting as a means of expressing myself and exploring the world around me.
For me, art is not just a hobby or a job, but rather a source of energy, a foundation of freedom, and a surge of peace. I find inspiration in the tiniest particles of nature as well as the vastness of the landscape. I've had exhibitions at the World Bank HQ in Washington DC and my work is often featured at Open Space Arts in Potomac Town Center.My favorite subject is nature, but my paintings range from the depths of the ocean to the infinity of space. While oil is my preferred medium, I have been challenging myself to explore new directions and techniques, such as resin, watercolor, acrylic, calligraphy, and more.I received early sketch coaching at the Bangladesh Fine Art Institute (Charukala Institute) and later took an extensive course on oil painting and modern art technology at the Torpedo Factory Art Center in Alexandria, Virginia.Having grown up in South Asia, I come from a rich cultural background where warmth and cultural homogeneity are highly valued. Living in the USA for two decades has given me a perfectly balanced exposure to both eastern and western living and culture, which has further enriched my artistic expression.
