Arpana Caur started painting in oil at a very early age, and she had her first exhibition at the age of nine. Indian miniature paintings influenced her brushstrokes and compositions, and she depicted her concerns on social issues and conflicts through her paintings inspired by the 1984 Sikh riots and Vrindavan widows. She drew her inspiration from her mother, well-known author Arjeet Caur and artist Amrita Shergil. Her works are exhibited in Victoria Albert Museum, Kolkata and The Rockefeller Foundation, New York.
