If you have a group photo where someone is missing or a blurry shot that needs restoration, I can merge subjects from different images or recreate the background entirely. Before I touch a brush, we approve a digital layout together, so you know exactly what is going on the canvas. ### How We Make It Happen Every piece starts with your photos. Whether you want a realistic pet portrait, a family keepsake, or a memorial piece, I work with you to get the composition right. **Merging and Customization** Don't have that perfect group shot? No problem. I often merge family members or pets from different photos into one cohesive scene. I can even change the background to match your home decor or a favorite memory. **Choosing Your Medium** * **Rustic Wood Slices:** These 4-6 inch natural wood pieces are perfect for single-subject headshots. The bark edge adds a lovely, organic texture to the artwork. * **Classic Canvas:** For a more traditional, detailed look, I use archival cotton canvas. These range from 8x10 to larger statement pieces (18x24+ inches) for group portraits. **The Process** Once we agree on the layout, I create a preliminary digital sketch on my iPad. You approve this before I start painting. I use heavy-body acrylics for texture and depth, especially when capturing fur or fabric. Every painting is finished with a satin varnish to protect against UV and dust, ensuring your memory lasts for years. I handle everything myself, from the first sketch to the final packaging, so please reach out if you have a specific deadline in mind. I ship worldwide, so even if you aren't in Mumbai, we can get your portrait to you safely. ## About Anushka Nayak Hey, I'm Anushka.
