I like my art a bit raw, a bit imperfect, and totally personal. Each piece comes with its own quirks, and that’s what makes it special. ### What I Can Paint For You - Kurtas, blouses, old denim jackets, jeans - if you can wear it, I can paint it. - Want something special for festivals? I love working on custom hand-painted festive outfits, especially for Navratri or Garba. - Got plain fabric lying around? I’ll paint it, you get it stitched however you want. - Upcycling old favorites is my jam - nothing like giving a new life to a piece you already love. ### What Inspires Me - I’m obsessed with Indian folk art - Warli art clothing and Alpona patterns show up in my work a lot. - Festival vibes, especially the energy of Navratri and colors of Goddess Durga, inspire a lot of my designs. ### How I Paint - Mostly, I use classic brushwork - sketch, paint, lots of patience for clean details and bright colors. - For a softer, more earthy look, I do eco print fabric designs using real flowers and leaves. Every print is one of a kind. ### How to Care - The paint won’t wash off, but go easy: hand-wash in cold water and iron on the back side only. - These pieces are meant to be lived in, not stored away. ## Highlights Browse through The Artist's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/artistic_roohja/hand-painted-clothing/featured) - [Video: This is where the magic begins.

I say, both. Connection matters more than labels. I grew up with stray dogs my grandpa brought home from mandir, so I learned early—home is not just walls. My art’s messy, raw, imperfect, like life itself. Ganesha murals, hand-painted outfits, it’s all got a bit of soul. I do get stuck sometimes, doubt creeps in, but then I remember—this messy journey is what I wished for. Blessing, truly. ### My work - **All Kinds of Art Services**: Custom canvas paintings, textured wall mural art, hand-painted fabrics, art workshops, and online courses. - **Mural Process**: I visit your space, soak in the vibe, chat with folks—then we create something that fits, not just hangs. - **Workshops & Art Parties**: Tote bag painting workshop for weddings, birthdays, school events—messy, fun, everyone leaves with a keepsake. - **Online Art Courses**: I teach Madhubani, Warli, Mandala with lifetime access. It’s more about finding your flow than just technique. - **Art That’s Personal**: Hand-painted Navratri outfit or textured art—each piece is a story, not just decoration. ## More services from The Artist - [Custom Mural Painting](https://mytribe.in/artistic_roohja/custom-mural-painting) · ₹200-500 per square foot (estimate) - [Art Retreats](https://mytribe.in/artistic_roohja/art-retreats) · ₹9-22K per person per retreat (estimate) - [Commissioned Artwork](https://mytribe.in/artistic_roohja/commissioned-artwork) · ₹3-12K per artwork (estimate) - [Art Workshops for Events](https://mytribe.in/artistic_roohja/art-workshops-for-events) · ₹6-25K per session (up to 20 participants) (estimate) - [Online Art Courses](https://mytribe.in/artistic_roohja/online-art-courses) · ₹1,000-8,000 per course (estimate) ## Book To book The Artist, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Hand-Painted%20Clothing%20by%20The%20Artist.)
