Mysore Painting Artist: 35 Years of Tradition

My journey began with a formal education in fine arts at Chitrakala Parishath in Bengaluru. However, the real training happened through decades of daily practice, focus, and adherence to traditional principles. I do not mass-produce; I create.

Every commission I undertake is a process that involves three distinct stages:

1. The Foundation: I begin by sketching the deity by hand. This is where I define the expression—the 'Satvik' or peaceful look that defines my work.
2. The Relief: Using the traditional gesso technique, I create the raised details on the board. This gives the jewelry, crowns, and architectural elements a 3D texture you can feel, adding depth that standard paintings lack.
3. The Gold: I apply 24kt gold leaf carefully. This is not just for shine; it is a respectful offering. It creates a warm, divine glow that remains vibrant, unlike synthetic alternatives.

Over the last 35 years, this dedication has been recognized with honors like the Karnataka State Award and the Y. Subramanya Raju Award. My goal is to bring that same level of history and craft into your pooja room or home. Whether you need a specific deity for a prayer space or a large-scale piece for a foyer, I approach every project with the same seriousness and devotion.
