Every piece starts as a blank screen where I sketch out your features and props by hand on my tablet. Whether it is catching the specific curl of your hair or adding a favorite hobby to the background, I build the caricature from the ground up to ensure the final result actually looks like you. The magic of a personalized caricature lies in the details. When you send me your photos, I am not just tracing lines. I am studying your expressions and your style. For my signature 'big head' art, I exaggerate the features to make them pop while keeping your personality intact. ### How I Create Your Art 1. **The Sketch**: Everything starts with a rough digital sketch. This is where we decide the vibe. Are we going for a funny superhero office scene or a realistic, romantic wedding invite? This stage is about getting the composition right. 2. **The Digital Paint**: Once the structure is set, I start layering. I focus on skin tones, outfit textures, and those small quirks that make a person unique, like a specific pair of glasses or a shirt you love. 3. **Final Polish**: I clean up the lines, add finishing touches, and deliver a high-resolution file. This file is ready for you to print, frame, or use as a digital invite. I treat every project as a *snehasammanam* (gift of love), so I take the time to get the details right. Whether you need a funny office caricature or a detailed wedding portrait, *nammal athu cheyyum* (we will do it). If you have a unique idea or a specific movie scene you want to recreate, just reach out and we can figure out the best way to make it happen. ## About Sreeni Hi, I am Sreeni.
