Divija Vallapaneni

I’m Divija, a student artist passionate about exploring creativity through a wide range of media — from acrylics, watercolors, and charcoal to mandalas, glass painting, and even coffee as a painting medium. I’m currently in Year 11 in England, and my artistic journey began in Hyderabad, India. Over the years, art has become my favorite way to express how I see the world — full of color, texture, and emotion.

My work often reflects my curiosity and imagination. I love experimenting with different materials and techniques, whether that means layering acrylics to create depth, capturing shadows in charcoal, or blending traditional and modern styles. Each piece I create is a small exploration — of mood, nature, and human emotion — where I try to balance fine detail with free, expressive strokes.

Art, for me, is both a challenge and a joy. It teaches me patience, observation, and the value of trying new things without fear. I’m constantly learning, discovering new ways to bring ideas to life, and hoping that my paintings connect with people on a personal level. My portfolio is a reflection of this journey — one of exploration, growth, and an enduring love for creative expression.
