Custom Hand-Painted Art & Portraits
A collection of my most cherished work, blending traditional techniques with personal memories to create art you can hold onto.
This acrylic painting of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj is a piece I'm incredibly proud of. I focus on capturing the strength and spirit of historical figures, making it a powerful statement piece for any home.
My faceless family portraits are a modern way to capture a memory. By leaving out facial features, I focus on the connection and the moment, creating a piece of art that is both personal and stylish.
I can turn your favorite photo into a hand-painted illustration on a clear phone case. It's a unique and personal way to carry a special memory with you everywhere you go.
This watercolor painting of an elephant family shows my love for nature. I use monochrome tones to create a sense of togetherness and emotion, focusing on the detailed textures and bonds between the animals.
I love adding a modern twist to spiritual art. This abstract Ganesha is painted on a textured canvas, using bold colors and a unique style to create a vibrant piece of devotional art.
I also paint large-scale wall murals to bring a room to life. This colorful piece features a macaw and a toucan, painted with durable acrylics to create a lasting and joyful atmosphere.
Inspired by the masters, this piece reimagines a personal photo in the style of Van Gogh's 'The Starry Night'. It’s a great example of how I can blend your story with iconic art styles.
About this collection
When you look at these pieces, notice the textures in the acrylics and the fine lines in my pencil work. I work closely with you to understand the emotion behind the photo—whether it is a faceless portrait to focus on the connection or a detailed historical figure—so the final result feels like a story, not just a drawing.
This collection highlights the range of my work, from fine-line graphite portraits to bold, vibrant acrylic murals. I treat every commission as a new challenge, whether I am recreating a cherished memory on a mini 5x7 inch canvas or painting a large-scale scene for a living room wall.
For my custom pencil portraits, I use heavy-duty, acid-free paper to ensure your sketch does not yellow or smudge with age. For acrylics, I apply a protective varnish to every piece, keeping the colours sharp and protecting the surface from dust. This is not mass-produced work; it is deliberate, hand-drawn art.
Many clients come to me looking for meaningful gift ideas. A faceless portrait of a family or a hand-painted phone case creates a connection that store-bought items simply cannot match. If you have an idea in mind, we can start with a simple photo. I will walk you through the options, from choosing the right medium—be it watercolor for something delicate or charcoal for a dramatic, high-contrast look—to finalizing the composition.
I also specialize in spiritual and cultural art, painting deities and historical figures with the respect and detail they deserve. If you see a style here that resonates, or if you have a completely new concept, let’s talk. I ship across India, ensuring your art reaches you safely and on time. Whatever the occasion, I am here to help you turn your favourite moments into something tangible.
