## About Fine Art Painting & Reproductions

### Not Just Skulls and Street Art

Most folks know me for my graffiti and heavy metal-inspired murals, but there's a whole other side to my art. One day it’s street, the next day it’s a classic Krishna scene or a Renaissance-style portrait. Basically, I like to keep things real and push myself beyond just one style.

### Classics with an Edge

I’ve got a thing for old-school art - think Renaissance art reproduction but with my twist. Sometimes I’ll paint a Roman sculpture as a flat artwork, trying to make it look 3D just with paint. I’m all about that realism, using light, shadow, and layers to make things pop. Monochrome portrait painting is kind of my jam, letting the mood and textures do the talking.

### Indian Roots, Big Stories

I also vibe with Indian mythology. Like, I once did this big mural of Yashoda and Krishna, all in grayscale, just capturing that playful moment - *Ghagri phodun jaatuya* (breaking pots and stealing curd). I mix realism with traditional styles to give these stories some fresh energy.

### How I Roll

- Start everything with strong sketches and solid composition.
- Build up each piece in layers, making sure there’s real depth.
- Every realism painting commission or custom Indian mythological mural is made for you and your space - nothing cookie-cutter here.

If you want something that’s both classic and a bit bold, that’s where I come in.

### My story

Dexter here, straight outta Mumbai, graffiti running in my veins. I’m all about that raw, heavy metal vibe—sometimes it’s dirty anti-style, sometimes I’m lost sketching with a ballpoint or painting a full-blown Venus on canvas. One day I’m with my crew spraying walls, next day I’m deep into a Krishna mural. Aanga var mass nhi, pan taklela khat nhi, boss. Art’s art, big or small. If it’s got a wall or a sketchbook, I’m game.

### My work

- **Graffiti, Murals & Custom Illustrations**: I paint graffiti, big murals, and do custom illustrations. Album cover art for musicians too.
- **Signature Mechanical & Heavy Metal Style**: My style’s all satire, mechanical graffiti letters, heavy metal mural art, and post-punk vibes.
- **Versatile Projects**: I’ve done Dragon Ball Z murals, tributes to cricketers, traditional Krishna wall art, and Renaissance stuff.
- **Open to Creative Collabs**: Love big walls, collabs, offices, cafes—any space with creative freedom, I’m in.
