## About Commissioned Fine Art Paintings

### My Happy Place

There are two sides to me - one writes about heartbreak, the other gets messy with paint and finds pure joy. Painting never feels like work. It’s where I bring your wildest ideas or quietest memories to life, and honestly, it’s what keeps me sane.

### What I Paint

- Love capturing stories on canvas - couples, pets (especially pets, yaar), prized cars, anything with a story
- Custom oil portrait commissions for those moments you never want to forget
- Pet memorial artwork for your furries, present or passed - these usually end up being the most emotional pieces for me too
- Pop culture fine art with a twist - think classical scenes reimagined, anime murals, or even a Disney vibe
- Large canvas abstract painting that fills up entire walls, or tiny detailed bits if that’s your jam
- Sometimes I find beauty in the most random things (a half-eaten vada pav, anyone?) and love turning the mundane into art

### How It Happens

Trust is a big deal for me. We'll chat about your idea, whether it’s crystal clear or just a feeling. I’ll guide you through my process - sometimes it takes a few sittings, especially for detailed pieces. I mostly use oil and acrylic on good canvas, and am happy to go big, small or somewhere in between.

Every painting is personal. It’s not just paint, it’s a piece of me. If you want something real, something with heart, you’re in the right place.

### My story

I’m Sanaya. Artist, poet, sometimes a bit quiet, but my work does the talking. My book ‘Blessed with a Broken Heart’—that’s me, raw and real, sharing stuff I used to hide. I’m not the most social butterfly, but life keeps putting me in wild places, like painting live for brands. Four hours straight, just me and the canvas—oddly, I love it. If my art or words make you feel seen, that’s everything.

### My work

- **Custom Art & Personalisation**: I paint on anything—hand-painted luxury bags, Nikes, PS5s, pet portraits on LV holders. You dream it, I paint it.
- **Canvas Paintings**: Commissioned oil paintings, big or small. My ‘Beauty in the mundane’ collection finds magic in everyday mess.
- **Live Event Illustrations**: I create live art at events for brands, sketching moments guests can take home. It’s fun, intense, and always rewarding.
