The New Jersey based artist Sarasvathy TK is known for her hyperrealistic paintings of food from Indian cuisine. Born in Chennai, Sarasvathy studied computer science and engineering in India. She then moved to UAE and Singapore, before settling down in New Jersey.

Sarasvathy has worked as part of several prestigious assignments for the Ministry of Defence, Singapore as well as IBM India. In 2008, a chance conversation with her husband at an art exhibition, made her realize how much she loved art and she quit her job to devote all her time to drawing and painting. She found inspiration in Dutch still life paintings from the Baroque period and painted several still life works.

Over the years, she found she could extend her background in engineering to the visual art field as well, and apply the same meticulousness, precision and dedication to her art. She eventually found her calling in hyperrealism - exaggerated and vividly real food paintings.

Her recent works are a celebration of food from different regions of India in a hyperrealistic style. The incredibly detailed works capture the surface details, colors, aromas and textures of various food items, such as idli, dosa and samosa. Her art originates from a love for Indian cuisine, which is famous across the world and she feels excited and privileged to share it with a global audience of art and food.

To mark World Idli Day on March 30, Sarasvathy released a limited edition of 22 postal stamps featuring her painting around the theme.
