Manisha khandelwal
Manisha Khandelwal is an Ontario-based artist and passionate art mentor who works primarily in watercolours. Her paintings celebrate the quiet poetry of nature—serene landscapes, quaint buildings, and her favourite lighthouses that evoke reflection and hope. After a successful career in graphic design in India and many enriching years of creative entrepreneurship in Dubai, Manisha has made Canada her home, where the mesmerising, ever-changing seasons inspired her to embrace plein air painting. Her artistic journey is rooted in observation, emotion, and a deep respect for the world’s fleeting beauty. Through her art and teaching at Magic Fingers Art Studios, she encourages young artists to see beyond technique—to feel the rhythm of light, colour, and thought that make creating art a meditative and transformative experience.
