About Featured
I paint on everything from canvas to clay pots, often using things others might toss aside. My work combines traditional techniques like Madhubani and Warli with modern dot art, creating pieces that feel personal and rooted. If you see something you like, tell me, and we can customize it to match your vibe.
Art is my therapy and how I process the world. When I sit down to paint, it is about finding rhythm in the chaos, whether I am working on a complex chakra-themed mandala or a simple Warli design on a mitti ka ghada (clay pot). My style relies on high-grade acrylics and fine-liners to ensure that every stroke lasts, whether it is on a tote bag you carry daily or a wall hanging that stays in your living room.
You will notice a lot of stippling and dot art in this collection. It is a slow, meditative process, and it shows in the final result. I also love the unpredictability of upcycling. Turning a used glass bottle or an old jar lid into a fridge magnet is not just about waste reduction; it is about finding new stories in old objects.
If you are looking for a gift, I work on a variety of surfaces. Bookmarks, tote bags, coasters, and custom canvas paintings are all on the table. My process is collaborative. If you have an initial, a favorite color, or a specific symbol like the Evil Eye in mind, let me know. I prefer to sketch out a design that feels like you rather than just churning out mass-produced decor. Every piece I ship is varnished to handle the humidity and dust, so you do not have to worry about the art fading with time. Just send me a message to discuss your idea, and we can get started.
