She Brushes Aside Worries with Joy of Life

This 2009 report from The Indian Express, Ludhiana, covers the launch of Puneeta Ranjan's solo painting exhibition, Joy of Life, in the city. It notes that she had already won an excellence award in 2005.

It recounts how she gave an outlet to her imagination through her first painting at the age of thirteen, and how she discovered a love for art very young.

The article describes her as a self-taught artist who first ventured into chartered accountancy; although she completed those studies, her heart pulled her toward painting full time, and she took a year of training from a private tutor to build her craft.
