The Red Oak DEI Action Committee is pleased to present local artist Sheela Jhaveri. India born, Sheela is known for her captivating mixed-media abstract art and her delightful watercolor sketches. Working intuitively, she often explores themes of identity, culture, and the interplay of textures and colors, creating pieces that resonate deeply with viewers. Sheela’s artistic exploration is rooted in her passion for experimentation, blending traditional techniques with innovative approaches to produce thought-provoking and visually stunning creations.

 

Sheela Jhaveri's work is currently on exhibit at Red Oak’s El Cerrito office through the beginning of April. The opening reception was a fun and animated gathering, celebrating community and inclusion, highlighting the importance of supporting local artists and promoting inclusivity within the art world.

 

Sheela continues to inspire through her art, contributing to the lively cultural landscape of the East Bay. If you’d like to join the community at the next art event, let us know.
