Our Story

Art that heals. Art that elevates.

Founded by

Nandita Richie

Award-winning Visual Artist · Energy Art Life Coach · Raja Ravi Varma Awardee · Founder of Life Canvas Academy

Nandita Richie is an award-winning Visual Artist and Energy Art Life Coach, trained in Applied Art at the prestigious College of Art, Delhi. With over three decades of dedicated practice, her work has been showcased across India and the world, finding a place in the collections of distinguished private patrons and corporate institutions.

Her work is deeply rooted in the rhythms of nature — vivid colour, abstract form, and emotional depth that invite the viewer into a meditative dialogue. Beyond the canvas, her limited-edition wearable art — digitally printed scarves, sarees, and ties — carries her vision into everyday elegance, merging fine art with contemporary living.

A multifaceted and multidimensional force, Nandita has been honoured with the prestigious Raja Ravi Varma Award by the Ministry of Culture, Government of India, among numerous national and international accolades, recognising both her artistic excellence and her humanitarian work.

Today, her journey transcends traditional art. Through a rare fusion of art and energy healing, she empowers women to reconnect with their inner child, release emotional weight, and rediscover self-worth. Her curated live events, exhibitions, and workshops have become spaces of transformation — where creativity becomes a path to healing and purpose.

With Life Canvas Academy and the Diamond Artists Gallery, Nandita has created a dedicated platform to nurture, present, and celebrate artists of the community — offering them visibility, dignity, and the international-standard presentation they deserve.
