Artist Profile: Aura Arindam
Originally from the province of Ontario in Canada, Aura Arindam studied for her Master’s degree at McGill University in Montreal. In 1991 she moved to Victoria, British Columbia.
Aura uses coloured pencils for her botanical drawings and acrylics for her botanical, seascape, landscape and skyscape paintings. She apprenticed with her late husband, an accomplished professional artist who studied under Salvador Dali and at prestigious international art schools around the world. His artwork was exhibited at the Guggenheim Museum in New York City. For several years, they also worked for a UNESCO-sponsored project whose aim was to bring human unity and peace between various nations of the world. She is now an accomplished artist in her own right.
Aura has been a registered member of the Botanical Artists of Canada and the American Society of Botanical Artists. Her orchid drawings received 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize ribbons at the Victoria Orchid Society’s 28th Annual Show & Sale. Her artwork has been featured on CHEK News television, on local radio and in publications including Focus magazine, Boulevard magazine, Victoria News, James Bay Beacon newspaper, B.C. Iris Society Newsletter, Botanical Artists of Canada Newsletter, and many others. Her artwork has been shown and sold at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria, Butchart Gardens, Royal British Columbia Museum, Sooke Harbour House, Brentwood Bay Lodge, Legacy Art Gallery, Community Arts Council of Victoria Cedar Hill Main Gallery, Fernwood Inn, Munro's, Emily Carr House, Teahouse at Abkhazi Garden, Patient Care Centre of the Royal Jubilee Hospital, Victoria General Hospital, Look Show, Cenote Lounge & Restaurant, The Papery, Moss Street Paint-In, Serious Coffee in James Bay, during the American Iris Society National Convention, the James Bay Art Walks and Fairfield Artists Studio Tour and to private art collectors. Her artwork has also been used as a CD music cover. She does private art commissions.
“With our often hectic, fast-paced lives, I feel it is important to stop and admire the beauty of nature in our lives in order to provide some peace within and enrich our spirit. It is my hope to communicate that beauty and peace of nature through my artwork.”
