Prithiyaayini Ganesan

Prithiyaayini (affectionately known as Prithi) from Ipoh, Perak - was first diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder at the young age of 3. By 5, she began drawing pictures based on her interests in books, and was encouraged to explore her passion for art by painting on canvas. By 10, she was enrolled in art classes and it was during that time that she was introduced to acrylic paints - a turning point where her artistic talents began to blossom. Starting with comic-style canvas paintings, Prithi gradually stepped out of her comfort zone and began exploring various other styles, techniques, and elements of acrylic painting. In addition to painting and drawing, Prithi loves baking and jigsaw puzzles, among others. She aspires to become an artist and pastry chef one day :)
