About Shalimar Waffa

Shalimar is a full-time professional artist whose journey with painting began as soon as she could hold a brush. Entirely self-taught, she has spent years refining her technique through dedicated study and experimentation, developing a signature style rooted in rich textures, bold palettes, and emotional depth.


Working primarily with oil paint and palette knife, Shalimar builds dynamic, layered compositions that explore themes drawn from her personal experiences. Her work reflects a deep sensitivity to what is often overlooked or undervalued, offering visual narratives and allows viewers to connect with her through her art. 


With over a decade of professional experience, Shalimar has sold more than 500 original works to collectors across Europe, Canada, Australia, and 38 states in the U.S. She currently creates and exhibits from her gallery and studio in downtown Cary, North Carolina.
