Rita’s artwork is shaped by a life lived across cultures. Born in Kenya, of Indian heritage, and now firmly rooted in Colorado, she brings a deep appreciation for local landscapes, diverse traditions, and beliefs into her creative process. The SouthWestern landscape is her muse: her use of colors, shapes and textures bring an energy and clarity to her paintings, inviting us to explore our own interpretations. This sense of mystery and love of shape is imbued into both her landscape and still life paintings. Her emphasis on dialogue with her collectors enriches this experience, fostering a shared connection.
