ABOUT
Deepa Koshaley is an Indian-born artist that creates peaceful yet energetic visual experiences. The artist, herself a yoga and meditation teacher, explores themes inspired by nature's paradox of opposing forces. By combining her love of art and yoga, Deepa helps others create balance with her unique application of mindful self-expression in the context of yoga aphorisms. She exhibits her work in numerous professional galleries and public exhibitions, including Mary Tomas Gallery, Irving Art Center, Eisemann Center (Richardson), and South Dallas Cultural Center.
Her unique style has led to the increasing popularity of her exhibitions. Deepa has served in leadership roles with the Art of Living Foundation, Texas Visual Arts Association (TVAA), Dallas Art Dealers Association (DADA), Irving Arts Association, and the Visual Arts Guild of Frisco. In an effort to give back, Deepa regularly participates in charitable events.
She has live-painted in an event and also created 3 paintings to raise funds for the Art of Living Organization, where she donated 100% of the proceeds to the mental health cause. The potion of her art sale goes to the organizations which offer programs to support mental health and well-being. Deepa Koshaley and her husband currently live near Dallas, TX.
