### My story

Hey, I’m Anushka from Mumbai. Art’s been my thing for ages, but it really took off again in 2016 with acrylics. I started out painting all sorts of travel scenes, but now I’m obsessed with pet and people portraits - even though I don’t have any pets myself (yet!). I just love capturing those little quirks and big memories. It’s a lot of juggling - painting, packing, chatting with you all - but seeing your reactions makes it worth every late night. Grateful for every story I get to paint.

### My work

- **Custom Portraits and Art Gifts**: I paint custom pet portraits, hand-painted family portraits, couple and solo portraits, plus travel and nature scenes. Also make art prints, notebooks, coasters.
- **How I Work**: You send me photos, sometimes we mix a few, I sketch, then paint on canvas or wood. All about layers and details.
- **Any Size, All Heart**: From tiny 4x4 inch canvases to big statement pieces, I put the same care into every piece.
- **Art That Lasts**: I freeze your memories in paint - wedding days, goofy pets, family hugs. Shipping worldwide too!
