## About Custom & Traditional Paintings

### Your Vision, Our Colours

I’m part of Aditattva Art, where we turn memories and culture into paintings. If you’ve seen our murals at Namma Kudla, you’ll know we’re all about bringing a bit of Mangalore’s soul to every brushstroke. What most people don’t see is the work we do for homes and personal art collections - it’s more intimate, but just as full of life.

### What I Paint

- Custom canvas pieces: My work with acrylics covers everything from hyperrealistic canvas painting (it’s crazy how real they look) to wild nature scenes. Want your pooja room to feel special? I’ll paint swans, tigers (pili), or landscapes that feel like you’re right there.
- Traditional Indian art: I dig deep into heritage - Pattachitra scroll artwork and Pichwai, especially. Whether you’re after mythological stories or a modern lotus flower twist, I’ve got you. These make great statement pieces for any space.
- Portraits: Not just faces - I try to paint their story. If you love Yakshagana dancer painting or want a personalized deity portrait (think Lord Shiva, Durga, Ram), I focus on expression and detail.

### What Makes My Work Different

Each painting is a bit of Tulunad, a lot of effort, and a slice of culture. I believe art should feel personal, not just decorative. For me, it’s about making something that actually means something in your space.

### My story

We’re Aditattva Art, bunch of Mangalore artists. Our heart beats for namma Kudla, you know? Tulunad’s stories, colours, Kambala races, Yakshagana faces, Pili Vesha tigers—these fill our paint buckets. We splash them on city walls, flyovers, stations, even Dasara tabloos. Sometimes it’s loud festival murals, sometimes just a peaceful Buddha for a garden. Every wall is a new chance, every project is a piece of home.

### My work

- **All kinds of art & crafts**: Wall mural art, graffiti, custom paintings, sculptures, festival tableau, artificial waterfalls—big or small, we do it.
- **Local stories on walls**: We love bringing Tulunad mural art and Yakshagana inspired painting to public spaces and private spots.
- **Custom projects, any space**: Hotels, cafes, offices, homes, city projects—if you’ve got a wall or an idea, we’re in.
- **From idea to art**: You share your vision—could be custom graffiti for cafes or festival tableau sculptures—we build it, fully unique.
