Every stroke here is handmade with heart. ## Photos and videos - ![I've captured the divine energy of Theyyam, a ritual performance art from Kerala.

Every canvas piece is finished with a protective gloss varnish, so you do not have to worry about dust or fading over time. This gallery is a snapshot of my creative journey. When I paint, I try to capture the spirit of what inspires me, whether it is the raw intensity of a Theyyam dancer or the quiet geometry of a mandala. My work is divided into a few key styles. For my Kerala heritage pieces, I focus on the expressive faces and rich pigments found in Kathakali and Theyyam. These are painted on canvas and usually take a bit more time to capture the details. Then there is my love for Kalamkari and cosmic themes, which I often execute on high-quality cartridge paper using fine-line pigment markers. Because I create everything from my studio in Bengaluru and Kochi, I am always open to custom requests. If you have a specific deity in mind, or if you want a mandala in colours that match your wall, just let me know. Bas, batao (just tell me) what you are envisioning, and we can figure out the size and style together. I also love making smaller, functional items like bookmarks and festive diyas, so even if you are looking for a small gift, I am happy to help. ## About Apshra Hi, I’m Ayshwarya. I shift between painting fiery Theyyam dancers and quiet, blue-toned mandalas—it just depends on the mood. I love working on custom orders, so if you have a specific deity or colour theme in mind, bas, batao (just tell me) and let's make it.
