Hi! I am Anshi Rai
I am a self-taught abstract artist based in California, originally from India, with deep roots in Canada. For years, I worked in the world of technology, quietly longing for something more. In the stillness beyond the screen, I discovered painting. What began as a personal refuge soon became a path to healing, and eventually, my true calling.
I paint with my hands, letting intuition lead where words cannot go. My process is raw, emotional, and deeply personal. Each piece is a quiet conversation between texture, memory, and feeling- infused with gold, inspired by nature and shaped by the story of becoming.
My work is a space to feel seen, a soft place for the heart to land and a gentle but fierce reminder that we are allowed to rise, heal, and shine in our own way.
