Welcome to my website. I create and sell one-of-a-kind original paintings so you can be sure you have unique art in your home. The artwork will be packaged securely and you will receive it ready to hang. Take a look at my contemporary landscapes, atmospheric seascapes and modern abstracts. I paint full-time so there will always be something new to see. Every piece has been carefully hand-crafted by myself in the studio here in the United Kingdom. I paint in both oils and acrylics. If you would like to buy original art or commission a piece, please write through the contact form provided. Thanks. Kalpana.
Kalpana Soanes grew up sketching pictures in the sand on the shores of East Africa. However, this simple existence was short-lived. Her flamboyant style had begun to draw crowds. Naturally, she took commissions. Not for money, just cake, or simply, compliments. She developed her skills every single day, experimented with new techniques and frequently sketched pictures in public. Spurred on by the interest it generated, Kalpana started selling her artwork at a very young age. She liaised with local businesses and soon her work was scattered all over the world. Next, she enjoyed an exciting career in computers, worked and lived in different countries in Europe and abroad for several years. However, something was not right. She missed the good old days. Eventually, her inner artist broke free of corporate serfdom. Now based in a quaint British village, Kalpana Soanes is a full-time artist. Her work involves acrylics and oils on canvas, often accentuated with mixed media.
