Current Exhibit

Echoes of Light & Line

Exhibit Dates: October 6, 2025 to December 15, 2025

Reception Date: October 12, 2025 at 3:00 pm

A two-artist exhibition featuring sisters Hima and Nishita Jain. Though their subjects differ—portraits and landscapes—their work shares a contemplative sensitivity and a reverence for quiet moments.


Hima’s pencil portraits capture the dignity, character, and quiet strength of individuals from varied walks of life. Each drawing is rendered with extraordinary care, inviting viewers to pause and connect with the depth of expression etched in graphite.

After a successful career in IT entrepreneurship, Hima returned to her early love of drawing and painting during the quiet pause of the pandemic. This reconnection with her creative roots reignited a lifelong passion for observing and expressing the world through art. Her current work goes beyond visual representation—it seeks to convey the spirit of her subjects and the subtle interplay of light and shadow that brings them to life.


Nishita’s watercolor landscapes evoke fleeting light and shifting atmosphere. Her work explores place as emotion—layered washes, softened forms, and tonal transitions convey both solitude and serenity.

With a focus on tonal nuance and fluid brushwork, Nishita uses the inherent softness of watercolor to evoke emotion and place. Her distinctive approach continues to resonate with viewers, drawing the attention of both collectors and fellow artists.

Nishita is also an art instructor, teaching watercolor techniques to adult students at both beginner and intermediate levels. 

Together, these works offer a visual meditation on stillness and presence—whether in the lines of a weathered face or the mist over a morning field.
