About Custom Artwork & Portraits
Art is my way to find sukoon (peace). I pour that feeling into every piece, whether it’s a quiet moment or a riot of colour. Sometimes I get stuck, but I’ve learned to let go and enjoy making art. Maza lene ka (just enjoy it), that’s the rule.
Turning Memories Into Art
If you’ve got a photo or a memory that means a lot, I can turn it into a hand-drawn couple portrait or something more personal. Recently made an A4 sketch for a client from Odisha - it’s about giving you something that lasts, not just a quick drawing.
Mediums That Match Your Vision
- Oil paintings: Rich, expressive, sometimes spiritual themed artwork. I use palette knives for texture and like blending realism with a bit of emotion.
- Watercolour paintings: I do watercolour cityscape painting outdoors, especially old buildings and lively street scenes. Elderly faces are a favourite - so much story in those eyes.
- Charcoal & pencil: Love the classic look. Realistic charcoal sketch, every detail matters - from wrinkles to the folds of a saree.
Subjects That Matter
Portraits with a story, especially elderly portrait art. Rajasthan’s bright turbans, the spiritual quiet of ‘Kun Faya Kun’, and cityscapes all find a place on my canvas. Sometimes I join sketchmeets to capture the vibe of a place live.
Let’s Make Something Together
Share your idea, we’ll pick the right medium, and I’ll get to work. Bas, karte rehne ka (just keep going). I’ll ship it safe, wherever you are.

My Story
Hello doston! Main Faizan, Banaras ka artist. Banaras sirf jagah nahi, ek vibe hai yaar. Art college se leke ab tak bas art hi art, sukoon isi mein. Ek painting banayi thi, 'Kun Faya Kun', namaz ke waqt jo energy milti hai na, wahi capture karna tha. Kabhi-kabhi competitions mein kaam select hota hai, toh lagta hai, haan, mehnat rang laayi. Bas, art ka safar hai, chalte rehna hai, maja hi maja!
My Work
Services I Offer - Oil paintings, watercolour couple illustration, charcoal portraits, washable acrylic wall mural, live sketch event artist, and custom commissions.
How I Work - Koi bhi project ho, pehle sketch, phir shading, details. Murals mein washable acrylics use karta hoon - tikau aur bright!
My Style - Old logon ke chehre, unki kahani, ya phir rangon ke saath khelna - emotions pakadna mera fav hai.
Live Art - Live portrait banana, sketchmeet pe jaana, wah mazaa hi kuch aur hai. Moment ko paper pe zinda karna!
