About The Instructor
Namrata from The Craft Window is a self-taught artist and her passion for Mixed Media took shape 6 years ago. She is greatly inspired by her mother who recycles garments into bags and organizers and hence decided to use the same technique in her artwork using daily household and recycled materials such as empty boxes, bottles, laces, twigs, buttons, corrugated sheets and much more. The outcome of this artwork make great gifts and can even be used as home decor.
