About Illustration
What I Do
I’m Noopur, a visual designer and illustrator. My art is a mix of science, nature, and a bit of dreamy surrealism. I’m obsessed with how womanhood connects with natural patterns and forms. Sometimes it’s all about strong lines and punchy colors, sometimes it’s softer and more introspective. I work both by hand and digitally - starting with ink or gouache, then moving things onto the screen for those detailed touches.
What My Illustrations Feel Like
- Narrative-driven: Every piece tells a story or dives into a mood - it’s rarely just a pretty picture.
- Surreal, with vibrant colors and intricate patterns.
- Sometimes the work feels like an “emotional ecosystem”, with lots happening beneath the surface.
How You Can Use My Work
- Editorial illustration for magazines and media - I’ve done artist portraits for music shows and my work’s been featured in big art publications.
- Motion cover art for books, zines, or even podcasts. I can do both static and animated covers, and promo posters too.
- Surreal portrait art for musicians, personal projects, or brands wanting something different.
- Large-scale murals and archival prints for offices or events - I’ve handled mural projects in Chennai and Bangalore, even managing the on-site painting.
- Patterns for textiles or interiors, plus short looping animation GIFs if you want something meditative.
How I Work
My process is collaborative. I’ll keep you involved from first sketch to final piece, whether it’s a quick digital job or a big mural. I take on commissions globally and love projects that push me to mix things up - from layered paper sculptures to acrylics on wood.
If you’re after illustration that feels a bit offbeat and deeply personal, I’m your person.

My Story
Hey, I’m Noopur. I get totally lost in drawing out what it means to be a woman, and how that ties in with nature’s wild patterns. My grad thesis at MICA, ‘The nature of being,’ was me connecting womanhood and science with the natural world. Hands-on stuff is my jam - acrylics, pencils, sketchbooks everywhere. But digital art and making things move? Love that too. Seeing my work in places like The New York Times, honestly, it’s wild and humbling.
My Work
Visual Design & Illustration Projects - I create editorial illustrations, posters, book covers, and love jumping into creative collabs.
Surreal Feminine & Nature Themes - My art dives into self-preservation, bioluminescence, and the link between bodies and nature.
Mixed Media & Motion Graphics - I switch between acrylics, color pencils, digital tools, and sometimes add motion graphics for magazines.
Editorial & Collaboration Experience - I’ve worked with Bandcamp Weekly, The New York Times, and on fiction contest posters.
