About the Artist

Originally from Mumbai, India, Debanjana Bhattacharjee moved to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina in 2015 from Texas. She has a bachelor’s in mathematics from University of Mumbai and a post graduate diploma in Modern and Contemporary Indian Art History from Dr. Bhau Daji Lad Museum, Mumbai. 

Debanjana is an en plein air painter who captures those fleeting, beautiful moments outdoors. Her paintings are her instant reaction to the scene and are painted in the way she feels depicts the scene best. She can be seen painting the sunrise in Myrtle Beach daily during the summer.

She enjoys painting in acrylic, oil and gouache. All three mediums help her with the different immediacy her subject calls for.

She is a juried member of Oil Painters of America (OPA) and member of American Impressionist Society (AIS).

Her painting, The Wide White Cotton Field is in the private collection of Ms. Darla Moore. Earlier this year two of her paintings, Sunflower Field and Hope were selected by MUSC, Charleston as large format vinyl for their Free Standing Emergency Department in Garners Ferry, SC.

Debanjana is represented by Sunset River Gallery, Calabash, North Carolina. Seacoast Artists Gallery and William H. Miller Fine Art Studios in Myrtle Beach and Georgetown Art Gallery in Georgetown.
