About From My Sketchbook & Workshops

I never start a complex bridal design or deity portrait directly on skin without a paper draft. Sketching helps me perfect the proportions, density, and flow of the art before the henna ever touches your hand. Whether it is a custom couple scene for an engagement or a new Shrinathji figure, this step ensures the final work is as balanced as it is beautiful.

Artistry refined through dedicated daily practice. — Approved by the tribe

Namaste, I am Anupama. For me, the journey of a design starts long before the cone touches skin. Whether I am drafting a new Shrinathji portrait in my sketchbook or teaching students in Surat and Mumbai, every line I draw is a piece of my devotion.

Every masterpiece begins with a simple outline. This is the first step in creating a 'Phera Rasam' figure, ensuring the posture and proportions are correct before adding details.24
Step two: defining the facial features and basic clothing lines. This is where the characters start to take shape, and I teach how to draw expressions with just a few strokes.
Step three: adding the intricate patterns and shading to the groom's attire. This layering technique is what creates depth and a rich, designer look in your mehandi.
The final, completed 'Phera Rasam' figure. Seeing the design come together step-by-step shows how my structured teaching method makes even complex scenes achievable.
