Ananya Vaidyaraman enjoys using visual arts to raise awareness about environmental sustainability. She recently graduated from Deepti Designs School of Art where she learned Madhubani art from Ms. Deepti Agarwal, founder of Deepti Designs and recipient of the Governor's Art and Heritage Award. 

The dECOrative is a collection of Ananya's Madhubani artwork and photography, both of which are centered around nature and wildlife. In her spare time, she enjoys giving back to her local community through Creative Voices, a public speaking program she developed for young artists.
