About Custom Hand-drawn Portraits
My Journey, My Art
I’m an architect and an artist, juggling work, my small business, and gym sessions. Sab manage krungi (I’ll handle it all). My art is proof that passion can build something real, and yes, I started so koi ye na bol paye ki ladka hota toh sambhal leta (no one can say, ‘if it were a son, he would have handled it’).
Sketching for Peace
Drawing is my therapy. On tough days, I find calm with my pencils and paper. Sometimes, just saying Swami Samarth brings peace. Every portrait I make carries that emotion and story.
What I Offer
- Realistic graphite portrait in black and white, sometimes with a splash of color.
- Spiritual devotional sketch: Radha Krishna, Swami Samarth, Mahadev (with Marathi calligraphy), Lord Ganesha, Hanuman, Shivaji Maharaj, Lord Vitthal.
- Hand-drawn baby portrait capturing innocence.
- Custom family drawing from your favorite photos - self, couple, or group.
My Process
I’m a perfectionist. If a sketch isn’t right, I restart. I use Brustro 200 GSM paper, pro graphite and charcoal pencils, and special tools for sharp details. I’ll always be honest about timelines - if it needs more time, I’ll tell you.
Bringing Art Home
Your portrait is made with care. Standard sizes like A3 and A4, framing available. It’s special knowing my story and heart are part of your home.

My Story
Hey, I’m Isha. Architect by profession, but Sketchink Studio is where my real story lives. Most days, it’s gym, job, then straight to my art table—energy zero, but heart full. Been doing this for 6 years now, slow and steady, not viral. My mom’s my biggest cheerleader, always pushing me to trust my madness. I started this to show, haan, beti bhi sambhal sakti hai (yes, a daughter can handle it too). Art is my therapy, my way to bring smiles, and honestly, it’s my peace.
