About Uma
Uma Kelkar, NWS, CSPWC is an international instructor who teaches watercolor, digital, charcoal and experiments with several other media like oil, gouache and ink. She is known for her direct watercolor paintings though she finds this fame befuddling because she draws a lot but is not known for her pencil work. Uma enjoys painting large with large brushes and enjoys touching the paper least number of times for most effect.
You can see more of Uma’s work on her website, on Instagram, and on Facebook.
