I'm comfortable with watercolor, gouache, acrylic, or digital, so we'll pick the medium that best fits the vibe of your story before I even pick up a brush. ### How We Work Together My goal is to make art that feels personal. We are not just matching colors; we are preserving a moment. Whether it is a portrait of a beloved pet or a tribute to someone who inspires you, I put the same care into your commission that I put into my own private sketchbook. ### Choosing Your Medium * **Watercolor & Gouache:** These are my go-to for that soft, textured, authentic paper feel. Perfect for framing. * **Acrylic:** If you want something durable and vibrant for your wall, I work on 12x16 inch stretched canvas with high-quality paints. * **Digital:** Ideal if you need a high-resolution file to print later or use for personal projects. ### The Process It is a manual, slow process, and I prefer it that way. I work from your reference photos and keep you updated throughout the creation. If it is a digital piece, I always share a preliminary sketch for your input before finalizing the colors. For traditional paintings, I ensure we look at reference photos that capture the lighting and angles you love, as I use professional-grade, acid-free materials to ensure the art lasts. Everything is created right here in my Bangalore studio. I pack every order with care, include a handwritten note, and ship it anywhere in India. Expect a 7 to 14 day turnaround, because I never rush the craft. ## About Basit I'm Basit, a self-taught artist based in Bangalore. I spent years learning through YouTube and trial-and-error, and now I pour that same passion into every custom piece I create for you.
