This custom acrylic portrait was more than a painting; it was a birthday gift meant to capture a person's true spirit. By weaving in his love for bikes and the open road, the photograph was transformed into a personal story on canvas, a memory that now has a permanent place in his home.

Art, for me, is storytelling in its most intricate form. This close-up reveals the detailed miniature work within my Shiv Mahapuran painting, where every line and shade, created with a rotary pen and acrylics, tells a story of Shiva's life. It is a universe of devotion contained within a single form.

A piece of art should feel as grand as the story it tells. Here I am with "The Sounds of Music," a large 5.5 by 7 feet commissioned canvas. Creating large-scale abstract art like this allows me to translate complex emotions and ideas into a visual symphony that can define an entire space.

This is the complete Hanuman Chalisa, captured on a single canvas. I used a traditional miniature art style with acrylics and finished the details with gold cone work to honor the sacred text. It was created to be a statement piece for a client's temple, bringing positivity and devotion into their home.

About Custom Portrait Painting

Why Portraits Matter

I don’t just paint faces - I try to paint feelings. After decades with a brush, I know a portrait is more than decor. It’s a memory, a gift, a piece of your story. Sometimes, it’s the only thing that keeps a moment alive.

How We Work Together

Trust is everything. You bring your photo and your story, and I listen. We chat about what you want - the vibe, the emotion, the little details. I keep you updated as your portrait takes shape, so you’re never left guessing.

Start with your photo and what you want to capture
We talk about your vision, your people, your memories
I paint, you get updates, and together we make it real

What I Can Paint

Every portrait is different, just like every person. I do:

Personalized family portrait (immortalizing your loved ones, even your bachda’s big day)
Realistic portrait painting (true-to-life, every detail)
Custom caricature artwork (fun, hand-painted, for milestones)
Couple portraits, individual portraits, and custom figurative pieces (like your dad on his bike)

Mediums & Flexibility

You pick what suits your style and timeline:

Watercolor gift painting (quick, heartfelt)
Acrylic canvas portrait (vibrant, durable)
Charcoal (bold, classic)
Oils (rich, timeless)

If you need something fast, I can work with you. Sometimes, a beautiful watercolor is ready in three days. The final piece is always more than just a painting - it’s your story, captured.

My Story

Hi, I’m Hansa Sewani. Been at this for 35 years, but honestly, nature still teaches me the most. You look at a leaf, a mountain, patience is everywhere. That’s how I work too. My art’s not just for show - it’s got to mean something. Like that Shrinathji mural I did, not for show-off, but for memories. I listen, I try to make walls feel like home. Art’s connection, not just decoration.

My Work

What I do - Custom 3D murals, textured paintings, sculpted wall art, personalised portraits, big installations, art classes for artists and architects.

Art you can feel - I make spaces feel calm, alive, or grounded. It’s about what you feel, not just what you see.

Eco-friendly, long-lasting - I use natural stuff - clay, ceramic paste, marble powder. These sculpted murals for homes last way longer than just paint.

My way of working - We talk, I sketch, then build up layers by hand. No rushing. Every piece gets patience.

Trust means everything - Best work happens when there’s trust. I’ve done over 1,000 projects; honesty and heart in each one.
