We welcome Jayashree Sadasivan as juror for the Youth Art Competition "Building a Better World". From her own words: My love for drawing and painting started ever since my parents gifted me a box of crayons for my birthday in kindergarten. Colors fascinate me. I use bright colors in most of my artworks for vivacity and expressiveness. I gather inspiration from nature and I paint a variety of subjects-whatever suits my fancy at the moment. Colored Pencils , Pen and Ink, Acrylics , Digital Art and Mixed media are some of my favorite mediums to create art with. I like to explore and play with a variety of mediums and try to incorporate them onto my artworks.
Apart from my Artistic endeavors, I have earned my Bachelors in Electrical and Electronics Engineering and more recently I earned my Certification of Achievement in Graphics and Interactive Design. "
