Behind the Scenes: My Artistic Process

Inside our studio, art is never created at random. This video shows a typical day, collaborating with my team and clients, reviewing sketches, and ensuring every decision is intentional and aligned with the vision for the space.

A statement mural isn't just about the art, it's about where it lives. Here, I am sketching directly onto a client's wall, the very first step in mapping out the flow and composition of a new piece.

Every masterpiece follows three stages: planning, sculpting, and finishing. This video provides a quick overview of my process, showing glimpses of different projects at each stage, from an abstract canvas to a detailed floral mural.

The art you don't see is where the real story lies. This video shows the less glamorous but essential parts of the process, like building up the structural layers of a large abstract mural.

To create the branches for the cherry blossom mural, I use organic coconut coir rope, or sutli. Here, I am hammering the rope into place, creating a natural, flowing armature that will be covered with ceramic paste.

With the branches in place, I begin adding the delicate cherry blossoms. Each small flower is sculpted by hand and carefully applied to the wall, slowly building up the texture and detail of the mural.

The process of creating a mural often starts with a base of sculpted forms. Here, I am applying a coat of primer or sealant to a relief sculpture before the final colors are added.

This is the same process as seen in ID 39, showing the application of a base coat to a sculpted panel in my studio. This step ensures the longevity of the artwork and prepares the surface for painting.

I love the tactile nature of my work. Here I am, holding a freshly sculpted clay flower, a small component that will become part of a much larger, intricate mural.
