About Art on Wood: Rustic & Unique Keepsakes
Since these are natural wood slices, no two pieces are identical. The grain patterns and bark edges mean your painting will have its own unique character that you just do not get with a standard flat canvas. It is a rustic, heartfelt way to display a portrait, especially if you love that earthy, organic aesthetic in your home decor.
Every piece begins with your high-resolution photos, which I sketch out before beginning the painting process. I use professional-grade acrylics to capture the details of your pets or loved ones, layering the paint to ensure the colors are vibrant and true to life. Once the painting is complete, I seal each piece with a satin varnish to protect the artwork from UV damage and dust, ensuring it lasts for years. Because the surface is natural wood, the texture interacts with the paint in a way that feels organic and intimate, making these perfect for memorial keepsakes or special gifts. Whether you need a 4-inch miniature for a shelf or a larger statement piece, each commission comes with a small easel so you can display it immediately. I am based in Mumbai, but I ship these hand-painted keepsakes worldwide, safely packaged to handle the journey. If you have a rush deadline, please let me know when you reach out so I can plan my painting schedule accordingly.
