About Additional Work & Sketches

These aren't just finished pieces. Some are raw work-in-progress shots where you can see the graphite layers building up, while others are quick studies I did to keep my hands moving. Whether it is a charcoal portrait or a spontaneous ink sketch, my goal is always to capture the real look of the person, not just a filtered, glossy version. If you see a style here you like, that is exactly how I can approach your custom project.

Hey, Tarun here. Delhi based. I treat art like a personal diary. Some days I am doing hyper-detailed charcoal commissions, and other days I am just filling pages with quick sketches to clear my head. If you want art that feels human and is made by hand, you are in the right place.
