It is all about the gesso prep I do before picking up a brush. It is messy, yes, but it creates the perfect surface for every detail, from tiny bookmarks to custom plaques. When I am not at my desk with a K-drama playing in the background, I am likely covered in paint. My process is not about perfection; it is about that *gudgudaahat*—that little tingly feeling of joy when something beautiful comes to life. ### How I work * **The Prep:** Every MDF board or canvas gets primed with gesso. It is the unglamorous step that ensures your artwork lasts and the colors pop. * **The Vibe:** I love painting at night. Whether it is a Spotify plaque for an anniversary or a set of bookmarks, I find my flow state when it is quiet and the world is asleep. * **The Details:** From pressing dried flowers for glass frames to perfecting the brushwork on a Ghibli-style portrait, I focus on the small things that make a gift feel like a hug. I want to make art that feels real, not mass-produced. Whether you are looking for a unique portrait of your pookie or a thoughtful gift for a friend, I am here to help you bring those ideas to life right here in Bangalore. ## About Artsy Mysa Hi, I am Deeksha.
