About

I’m shrinithi Sathish Kumar from the district of Cuddalore, Tamil Nadu .I’m a computer science engineer by profession but my trajectory has always been towards art due to my passion since childhood and hence I started pursuing art as my profession and I’m a self taught artist . Back in 2017, I started exploring the world of zentangle, until then I was doing pretty much of pencil sketches . Zentangle is an artform where we focus on creating structured patterns and designs mindfully. When I started doing zentangle I discovered that it was just patterns in black and white . Later, I started giving an Indian touch to them by adding vibrant colours and lots of stones to make them look allure . Meanwhile I started working on other art forms like mandala art , dot mandala , fluid art , abstract art , stippling art and a few paintings as well.

Within a span of 6 to 7 months I did around 170-180 artworks in various mediums and working 7-8 hours straight became a regular affiar .Followed by a few events I got this amazing opportunity to showcase my talents at the Maison Colambani art gallery, Alliance Francaise , Pondicherry. It was my very first solo exhibition titled MERAKI held there on may 19th 2018 - may 27th 2018 with around 100 of my artworks. Years passed on and later in 2021 I was intrigued to learn more art forms I started by doing resin art and a few candles . Followed by macramé the art of threads ,terrazzo and mirror mosaic. In the month of Dec , 2021 I started making pure soy wax candles but this time they were not the regular ones but I started making a complete range of gourmet candles . I made a variety of cakes , ice creams , Indian sweets but all of them were candles .
They were are all made with pure soy wax and pleasant fragrances. All of my candles are made of soy wax since they are eco-friendly , produces no black soot like regular candles , and easily burns a hour more than a regular paraffin candle they are a by-product of petroleum which emits hazardous fumes however my candles are nature based and don’t cause such fumes .And thus led to the launch of SHRI’S ECSTASY CANDLES on 21st of jan 2022 . It was a great start to my new brand and the candles started selling like hot cakes . Within 3 months I reached a pinnacle of being awarded the INDIAN DREAMER’S AWARD 2022 for the category of candle artist and zentangle artist. INDIAN WOMAN ENTREPRENEUR AWARD 2022 for my home grown business of shri’s ecstasy candles . TOP 10 EMERGING TALENTS OF INDIA AWARD 2022 . By far I’ve made more than 8000+ candles in over 100+ designs.
