Harinder Sahota

Harinder Sahota is an artist and teacher, who lives and works in London. She graduated from University of Plymouth, having gained a BA (Hons) in Illustration. Her professional career took her to Hong Kong and Singapore where she worked as a freelance illustrator for various publishing houses and then as a graphic designer – finally returning to the UK in 1998.

Harinder has been teaching drawing and painting for the last 14 years to adults and children at Harrow Arts Centre and Heath Robinson Museum.

In 2022 Harinder decided to take a break from teaching and is now fully immersed in developing her own work. She has a particular interest in faces and people, believing that the painted portrait speaks to people in a way that the written word and photography cannot.
