Born in India and raised in Mumbai, Swati Sinha graduated with a degree in fine arts from Sir J J School of Art, Mumbai, one of the most prestigious art schools in India at the time. Whilst she wanted to pursue art as a career immediately, marriage, motherhood and immigration meant she spent years working in HR. She continued to create commissioned artwork during these years in a small part time manner.

In 2018, 20 years after she graduated from art school, dissatisfied from not being able to find enough time to do art, Swati finally left her corporate work to become a full time artist. She relearned what it meant to give yourself over to paint and canvas and began to once again create beautiful florals and masterful abstracts.
