Sonia Punjabi

New EWI artist Sonia Punjabi says her work is, “inspired by folk.” Sonia taps into her Indian heritage to create colorful paintings and jewelry. She grew up in the metropolitan city of Bombay, yet remains most inspired by a visit to the Indian state of Rajasthan, known for its vibrantly colored textiles, semi-precious stones, and handicraft traditions. Sonia was drawn to EWI for its mission and the opportunity it provides her. After only two months, she says the experience has been positive. Sonia will take the EWI business training this month to gain marketing and financial skills. She isn’t sure to what scale she wants to take her art, but she says, “I wouldn’t want to be sitting at home with a small audience. I want to create an avenue.” Read more
