Mera kaam hai (my work is) to capture emotions - not just faces. Whether it's drawing a custom deity portrait or sketching a film star, I put my heart into every detail. ### Devotional Art & Pop Icons Devotional pieces are a big part of my work. I create respectful, detailed portraits of spiritual figures - Lord Hanuman, Lord Krishna (Bal Krishna, with Radha), Shiva, Durga, Ganesha, and more. I’ve also drawn leaders like Premanand Govind Maharaj. On the pop culture side, I love making Bollywood celebrity sketches, sports icons like MS Dhoni, and even historic legends such as Bhagat Singh. ### My Process I don't rush. Har ek portrait banane mein bahut mehnat lagta hai (making each portrait takes a lot of hard work). Sometimes, I spend 40+ hours on one piece, focusing on tiny details like eyes, hair, and expression so it looks real. ### Pick Your Style - Realistic graphite artwork – classic black and white sketches, my signature - Watercolor – vibrant, colorful paintings if you want some pop - Ballpoint pen – bold, unique lines for something different If you want a portrait that’s more than just a drawing, I’m here for it. ## Highlights Browse through Vikash Tanti's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/bikxu_artist/devotional-pop-culture-artwork/featured) - ![This is a detailed graphite and charcoal portrait of Lord Hanuman.

Art is not just lines for me, it's feeling, yaar. Sometimes, the faces I draw almost talk back. I spend hours, sometimes days, with just my graphite and charcoal, chasing those tiny details that make you, you. People from Gujarat to Chandigarh send me pics, want sketches, and when I hear 'Osm yrr' (Awesome, friend!), I feel pura maza aa gaya (total joy). Gods, people, anime - I draw what brings peace. Grateful for it, always. ### My work - **Custom Portraits & Art**: I make hyper-realistic pencil portraits, custom charcoal sketches, religious art, and anime character drawings. - **Online Drawing Workshops**: I teach a 1-month graphite drawing workshop in Hindi, LIVE classes for beginners who want realistic photo sketch skills. - **How It Works**: Send your photo, I sketch it. Delivered anywhere in India, packed safe. ## More services from Vikash Tanti - [Online Drawing Workshops](https://mytribe.in/bikxu_artist/online-drawing-workshops) · ₹1,500-5,000 per 1 month workshop (estimate) - [Realistic Portrait Drawing](https://mytribe.in/bikxu_artist/realistic-portrait-drawing) · ₹800-2,000 per A4 size portrait (single subject) (estimate) ## Book To book Vikash Tanti, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Devotional%20%26%20Pop%20Culture%20Artwork%20by%20Vikash%20Tanti.)
