Thank you for joining me on this journey into art.
I am Rudi D'Silva, a full time professional artist
and art instructor based in Goa, India.
I work in Watercolours, Acrylics, Oils, Pastels, Charcoals, Pen&Ink and Graphite. My works reflect my love for nature, people and all things rustic / nostalgic. The passion and curiosity to explore new subjects and mediums as well as the quest to express myself through my art is what drives me.
I divide my time between working on commissioned artworks and teaching painting to art lovers in my spacious and open, garden studio at my residence in Benaulim, Goa.

who inspires others."

“Don’t think about making art, just get it done.
Let everyone else decide if it’s good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding,
make even more art.”
– Andy Warhol
