My paintings reflect my admiration for nature and have a strong autobiographical content. I have drawn inspirations from the surroundings I am familiar with and the colours that are embedded deep in my heart. They are a quintessence of what I have enjoyed over three decades as a Chemistry Professor, experimenting with colours!

To quote from Indian Express dated 4th December 2008 “THE JOYS OF LIFE was a three-day painting exhibition held in Chennai recently by
Dr. Shoba Ramakrishnan. This professor of chemistry in the Women’s Christian College felt that is was so important to have peace and to have that peace one needed a change of heart. She calls her paintings a ripple in the water and says the exhibition has a more fulfilling purpose”.

To quote from Indian Express dated 6th July 2010 “Dr. Shoba Ramakrishnan seems to be bonded with her work and workplace. If not; she couldn’t have recreated the architecture of the college she works in on palette with an emotional touch. The exhibition is a must visit for alumnae of WCC and all who wants to go back to their college days.”
