Flowers are by nature small works of art that fascinate with their beauty and enrich everyday life. A life without flowers is hardly imaginable. The depiction of flowers and blossoms is a tradition in art. For centuries painters have been bringing the magic of living nature into the home. Neela Pushparaj is addicted to both the grace of flowers and the special color effect of watercolor, giving the subject a unique timelessness. The painter experiences her first moments of contact with art when she begins a life in the United States. At this point, the young woman has successfully completed a medical degree and begins working in a hospital as a pathologist. In her free time, Neela visits art exhibitions and galleries. The art and the intensity of intention impress the medical professional. At almost fifty years of age, Neela takes watercolor lessons. The initial enthusiasm develops into a deep love and so the artist intensifies her studies. In the evening hours and after spending numerous hours a day in the pathology department, Neela Pushparaj attends art classes.
At the beginning of her artistic career, Neela Pushparaj painted part-time. In doing so, it was not uncommon for her day to begin at five in the morning. She would lose herself in the bright colours of her floral world for a few hours and then switch to the morbid activity of pathological medicine. An opposite life. Neela Pushparaj is aware of the contrasts that define her life. While pathology is tainted with negative qualities, her flower paintings and landscapes are her joyful experience. Philosophically, the two are not as far apart as they may seem at first glance. The radiant blossoming of a flower is immediately followed by the process of wilting. In many cultural circles, the flower is a sign of transience.
Neela Pushparaj creates unique floral worlds from natural subjects and vibrant colors. The painter works on a damp base of paper. She applies the colors and uses the shapes that emerge from them. By leaving out light areas, she allows the shapes to grow. This so-called negative painting leads to a vivid look and speaks for the great skill of the painter. Neela Pushparaj is a successful artist. When she remembers her first sold painting, she tells that a friend bought it. The proceeds were so small that she has no memory of how the purchase price was used. In the course of her purely artistic activity, her works became sought-after objects. Neela Pushparaj is involved in numerous social projects and, at the urging of her friends, has begun teaching watercolour painting.
