Romana Virani, 30 Resin artist
>>>
AVAILABLE FOR: Personalised resin art for weddings
Email: shadesstones@gmail.com
Price: On request

She was drawn to art since childhood. And though Romana Virani decided to pursue chartered accountancy in her college years, her creative side called out to her, motivating her to train in resin art. Over the course of a year, she perfected her skills, and has used them to help clients make their memories and mementos timeless for three years now. What Virani likes about resin as a medium is its dynamism: "Its uniqueness - no two pieces that I have created have been the same." This is also what motivates her to keep learning more about the medium. "Previously, people would preserve their varmala flowers by pressing them and keeping them in books. Resin keeps the flowers eternally fresh."

RECOMMENDED BY: Rashi Virmani "Romana's art made me fall in love with resin designs, and what I appreciate more about her is her empathy and understanding for what the customers want. She always adds a personal touch, and is so receptive towards including elements that appeal to individual tastes."
