My Journey as an Artist: Hand-Painted Divine Creations
Welcome to my creative space! This is a peek into how I turned my passion for art into a full-time calling, one hand-painted stroke at a time.
Here I am, holding my completed 24x24 inch Shiv Parivar painting. It's such a fulfilling moment to see a large-scale piece finished after putting so much heart into it.
Feeling blessed and happy next to my completed Shiv Parvati painting on its easel. The sunlight really brings out the vibrant colors.
Another photo of me with the Ram Lalla painting. I love dressing up for the occasion when I reveal a piece that I've worked on for a festival like Diwali.

About this collection
People often ask if these are prints, but every single piece here—from the tiny wood slices to the large 3.5ft canvases—is 100% hand-painted by me. Because I work with layers of acrylics and gouache to build texture, I need a little time to finish each order. It is always a good idea to reach out a few weeks in advance so we can plan your custom piece properly.
People often ask me why I didn't stick to a more traditional career path, but honestly, art is just who I am. Whether I am sketching out a grid for a large-scale Shiv Parivar or carefully painting the expressions on a Bal Krishna portrait, it feels like meditation. Har Har Mahadev pops into my head constantly while I work, and that spiritual connection is the foundation of everything I create.
I work primarily with acrylics and gouache because they allow me to build depth and vibrancy that you just cannot get with a print. When you commission a piece from me, you are getting a process that involves detailed sketching, multi-layer blending, and a final seal with high-grade UV protection varnish. This ensures your art stays bright, whether it is for your mandir, a meditation spot, or just to add good vibes to your living room.
My goal is to make divine art accessible and personal. From the innocence of Baal Ganesha to the grace of Maa Durga, each brushstroke is my way of celebrating my roots. If you have a specific deity or a unique size in mind for your home decor, let's talk. I love collaborating on custom requests and helping you find the perfect piece.
Prerna
I'm Prerna, and for me, art isn't just about decor—it's how I connect with my roots. Whether I'm painting a tiny Shiv Parivar on a wood slice or a large-scale Ram Lalla for your home, I put my heart into every layer to make sure it feels alive.
