About Custom Portraits & Paintings
I do this for the love of it, not as my main job. After a long day at work, I pick up my pencils and brushes to chill - drawing lets me switch off and just focus. My art isn't some big professional gig, it's how I share the joy I get from creating with others.
What I Offer
I turn your favorite photos into handmade portraits - something you can keep close or gift to someone. Most people come for couple and wedding portraits, but I also do family group shots, baby sketches, and single-person pieces. I pay attention to those small but important details - looks, outfits, and the vibe in the photo.
Style Choices
- Realistic graphite sketch: This is what I get asked for the most. I mix graphite and charcoal on thick paper, starting with a grid to nail the proportions. I use blending tools, and sometimes even makeup brushes, to get super smooth shading.
- Full-color acrylic paintings: If you want something with color, I use acrylics on paper for a realistic but bright finish.
How It Works
Send me a clear photo, and I'll work on your portrait by hand. I mostly do A3 or A4 sizes. You can ask for a simple black frame if you want. Once it's done, I pack it safely and ship anywhere in India.
If you want art that's personal and real, I'm your guy.

My Story
Hey, I’m Aniket. Drawing isn’t my job, it’s just what I do when I need a break from my corporate routine. Sketching helps me chill out, and nothing beats the moment a graphite memory sketch finally pops off the page. My art is rooted in Nagve, Kankavli, and every year, painting Ganpati murtis is pure magic—आतुरता आगमनाची (waiting for the arrival) is real for me. I believe progress is slow, so I just enjoy every line.
My Work
Handmade Portraits & Sketches - I make realistic couple portraits, family sketches, and personal drawings—mostly black-and-white, using graphite and charcoal.
Custom Paintings & Wall Art - I create custom anniversary paintings and wall art, choosing paper and tools carefully for depth and emotion.
Art for Special Occasions - Most of my work is gifted for birthdays or anniversaries. Seeing smiles when folks unwrap their memories is the best part.
