Uma Kelkar
"Breakfast at Tiffany's" A Watercolor Painting of a Café in Mancester, UK

2022

About the Item

"Breakfast at Tiffany's" is a watercolor painting by San Jose, CA based artist, Uma Kelkar. This painting is one of Uma's favorites because she painted it in the wet-on-wet technique, where she applies paint directly onto her substrate without a preliminary sketch. Creating a painting in the fisheye perspective without drawing gave Uma a sense of triumph due to the difficult nature of watercolors. This painting comes with a custom contemporary white wood frame, archival mat board and low-glare museum glass. Artwork Dimensions: 22 1/8" w x 6 7/8"h Outer Dimensions of Frame: 29 3/8"w x 14 1/8"h About the Artist: Uma is an engineer-artist who has made the Bay Area home since 1999. She is a watercolor painter and urban sketcher who also sketches in ink, gouache, and on the iPad. She has taught at Urban Sketchers International Symposia (2017, 2018, 2019, 2024) and is author of Urban Sketching book for the iPad. She strongly believes in cross-pollination and borrowing ideas from various fields to improve sketching. She has exhibited globally with 35+ awards and shows, taught 45+ workshops, authored 2 books, contributed to 6+ books and led 25+ lectures and demos worldwide. She holds signature memberships from CWA, NWS and CSPWC. As a community builder, she has engaged in local watercolor societies as well as international ones. She led Strategy for International Urban Sketchers as an Executive Board member. When Uma is not teaching or creating art, she is Founder-CEO of an AI startup that focuses on keeping humans in the creative loop, supercharging them and not replacing them. Before her own startup, she had a 20 year semiconductor design career largely in high-speed communication chips. She holds Master of Science (EE) from Stanford University and Bachelor of Engineering from Pune University, India.
