About Live Wedding Painting
Your Wedding, on My Canvas
I turn the buzz and magic of your wedding day into a one-of-a-kind painting, right as it happens. No filters, no edits - just me, my easel, and the real vibe in front of us. What you get is not just a pretty picture but a raw, emotional wedding keepsake that captures your first moments together.
How It Works
- I arrive before things kick off, find a spot where I can soak it all in without blocking anyone.
- The process is real-time wedding portrait painting - I sketch and paint for a few hours as your story unfolds.
- Your guests usually love watching the canvas change - it's unique entertainment, and something most haven't seen at a shaadi (wedding).
Why I Do What I Do
I started with hyper-realistic pencil portraits but found my heart in weddings. My first live painting was for my best friend - it wasn't perfect but it felt magical. I'm still learning, still growing. Each wedding is different, so every painting is a bit unpredictable, but that’s what makes it special.
What You Take Home
A custom ceremony canvas that holds the colours and energy of your day. I pour a lot of myself into every piece, hoping it feels like a bit of ‘jaadu ki jhappi’ (magical hug) each time you look at it.

My Story
Since I was a kid, art has been my go-to, my anchor. My bond with Krishna feels like it’s always been with me, you know? I grew up at the academy, teaching and learning, but now I’m doing my own thing. My family means everything - Amar, my Naana-Naani, my roots. Drew a portrait for them called 'Laadvo' (Ladoo) and their faces, those tears - that’s why I draw. Not just for the art, but for those moments. It’s connection, it’s memory.
My Work
What I do - I create realistic pencil portraits, emotional pet portraits, still life, custom art commissions, and live wedding painting. I also mentor beginners.
Art with feeling - Not just a sketch - I try to catch the emotion, the story, the tiny details that make a piece personal.
My way of working - Slow, steady, patient - sometimes a portrait takes months. I don’t rush, some bonds deserve that time.
Mentoring beginners - If you think you can’t draw, I’ll help you start. Step by step, from basics to real portraits. Let’s find your inner artist.
