Uma Gokhale

Artist • Designer • Founder, 83 Oranges®

Uma Gokhale is a mixed media artist exploring nature, memory, and human emotion. Born of two worlds — American roots and an Indian soul — my work blends bold color, modern minimalism, and expressive storytelling as it explores identity and the emotional layers of everyday life.

“Born in the United States and spending my early childhood there, I was surrounded by a culture of individuality and self-expression. Later moving to the colorful and culturally rich landscapes of India, I absorbed its intricate patterns, vivid hues, and tropical beauty. This unique cross-cultural journey shapes my distinctive style—an uplifting fusion of bold colors, tropical motifs, and modern minimalism using a unique blend of handmade drawings & graphic art.”

What began as a passion-led art practice grew into a globally licensed studio, with over 1 million prints sold worldwide through retailers including Anthropologie, Target, Nordstrom, John Lewis, and more.
