When you commission a piece, you are not just getting an image, but a large, hand-painted narrative on professional-grade canvas. Because these murals can reach up to 6 feet by 7 feet, I ship them as rolled, un-stretched canvas. This makes transport safe and gives you the freedom to choose a local carpenter for the final framing, ensuring the piece fits perfectly in your specific wall space. ### The Story Behind Every Canvas From the initial charcoal sketch to the final varnish coat, my process is entirely manual. I specialize in large-format acrylic paintings that often serve as the focal point of a room. Whether it is a realistic portrait or a complex mythological scene featuring figures like Maharshi Ved Vyash, I focus on the hard work that brings these subjects to life. ### How We Collaborate * **Consultation:** We start by discussing your vision, whether it is a family portrait or a heritage piece for an institution. * **Progress:** I share regular visual updates so you see your artwork evolving. This ensures the expressions and details match what you imagined. * **Final Touch:** Every painting is finished with a protective varnish (gloss or matte) to prevent fading and dust accumulation. ### Logistics for Large Commissions I understand that large art needs special handling. For everything from my 3x4 ft standard pieces to 6x7 ft institutional murals, I use heavy-duty, primed cotton canvas. Since these cannot be shipped framed without risk of damage, I pack them in industrial-grade PVC pipes. You will receive a Certificate of Authenticity along with your artwork, ready for your local framer to stretch it to your preferred dimensions. If you have an idea in mind, let us talk about how we can turn it into a reality for your home or office. ## About Neelam Gupta Painting is my shradha, my devotion.
