Modern Pichwai Wall Decor
I take the 400-year-old Pichwai art form and give it a fresh, personal twist. Every piece is hand-painted to make your space feel cozy, grounded, and uniquely yours.
Painting these Pichwai-inspired pieces is my form of therapy. This video shows the careful process of outlining the sacred cow and lotus flowers, bringing a sense of calm and focus to my day.

This is the joy of discovering the intricate patterns of Pichwai. Each brushstroke, from the delicate lotus petals to the details on the cow, is a meditative step in creating this piece of devotional art.

Here is the Pichwai painting styled in a warm, inviting living space. It shows how a single piece of art can transform a room, adding color, culture, and a story.
About Modern Pichwai Wall Decor
I paint these designs on sturdy wooden rounds, using vibrant, modern color palettes that pop against the traditional sacred cow and lotus motifs. Once the paint is dry, I apply a double coat of varnish so the art is durable and easy to wipe clean, which makes it perfect for adding a spiritual yet contemporary touch to your living room, entryway, or prayer corner.
Pichwai art has been around for centuries, traditionally narrating tales of Shrinathji. While I deeply respect that history, I love to blend it with a contemporary aesthetic. I trade the heavy traditional colors for pastels and bright, fresh tones that fit right into a modern Indian home.
How I make it
Every piece is hand-painted on MDF or wooden rounds. I don't use prints or stencils, so every brushstroke is intentional. Because I work with gouache and acrylics, the finish is opaque and rich.
Why it works for your space
- Durability: I seal every piece with a double coat of clear varnish (matte or gloss), making it dust-proof and wipeable. It is art that you can actually live with.
- Customisation: The designs on this page are just starting points. If you have a specific color theme in your room or a variation of a lotus or cow design you prefer, let me know. We can work together to make sure the piece fits perfectly on your wall.
- The Personal Touch: Since I am a small-scale artist based in Bengaluru, I pack every order personally. You will likely find a little extra doodle or a note in your package, just to add a bit of joy when you unwrap your art.
Whether you are looking for a statement piece for your wall or a heartfelt gift for a housewarming, I want these paintings to feel like a breath of fresh air in your home.
