Whether I am testing new mediums like resin or acrylic pouring, or painting on unconventional surfaces like wood and clay, I approach every project by simply trusting the process. This keeps the work honest and allows me to learn something new with every single stroke. Art has always been more than just a hobby for me. It is a vital balance to my technical work as an engineer. When I started, I focused on simple canvas paintings, but my journey has led me to explore so much more. I now work with various mediums including heavy body acrylics, wood planks, and even clay pots. My process involves constant learning. Some months are dedicated to pure experimentation—trying out resin art, alcoholic ink, or liquid pouring to see how colors react and merge. Other times, I am deeply focused on a specific narrative, such as my 'Kanasina Kanne' series or capturing the nostalgia of a travel memory on a wooden plank. I love working on custom commissions because they push me to adapt. Whether you want a landscape based on your favorite hiking trip in Germany or a piece of traditional Indian folk art for your living room wall, I treat every order as a new challenge. Every finished piece goes through a careful process, including varnish application for durability, to ensure it lasts as a beautiful addition to your home. Plus, knowing that a portion of the proceeds goes toward supporting injured street animals makes the entire process incredibly rewarding. ## About Ashwini Koppad Hi, I'm Ashwini. By day, I'm an engineer, but my evenings are spent lost in colors and canvas. This art isn't just a hobby, it's my therapy and my way of giving back to the street animals I care so much about.
