We do not just pick a colour palette, we map your narrative, memories, and the specific emotion you want to anchor in your home. This is the foundation for every piece I paint. When you commission a piece, you are not just buying a painting; you are collaborating on a story. Whether it is a canvas for your living room or a meaningful gift, I guide you through the process to ensure the final result resonates with your life. ### The Process Every project begins with that initial conversation. I want to know what makes you feel seen. Are we capturing a specific memory, a tribute to a loved one, or an abstract feeling? Once we align on the story, I sketch 2-3 concepts and we finalise the palette before the painting begins. ### Styles & Mediums I work primarily with high-grade materials to ensure your art lasts. Depending on the theme, we can explore: * **Abstract Emotion:** Perfect for capturing feelings and energy. * **Whimsical Illustrative:** For stories that need a bit of magic and character. * **Semi-Realistic:** When you want a recognizable connection to a memory or person. I use 300 GSM cold-pressed watercolor paper or primed cotton canvas boards, working with professional-grade Gouache, Watercolors, or heavy-body Acrylics. Every piece is finished with a protective sleeve or varnish to ensure it stays safe while it makes its way to your wall. ### Why This Matters For a long time, I never put art on my own walls because nothing felt like 'me.' Now, I paint to help others find that sense of belonging. Whether it is a small A4 illustration or a larger statement piece, my goal is that when you look at it, you feel a bit more at home. ## About Anupama I’m Anupama. For me, painting is about finding 'apnapan', a sense of belonging. I don't just create art; I help you translate your personal stories, struggles, and joys into colours that make your space truly yours.
