This painting, "Lalita Tripurasundari," is a culmination of deep scriptural study and artistic vision. It depicts the Great Goddess creating the ten avatars of Vishnu from her very fingernails, a concept from the Lalita Sahasranama. Every detail, from the Navamundi aasana to the expressions of Maya and Medha, is rendered to convey the divine play, or 'Leela', of the cosmos.

This mural of Bhikshaatanar, a wandering form of Shiva, was painted directly onto a wall in my home. The composition captures his playful yet profound nature as he walks the path of Maya, followed by the monkey-mind offering the fruit of karma. It showcases my ability to create large-scale narrative art for personal spaces.

My art extends to wearable ritual textiles, like this hand-painted 'Sada laal' saree for Durga Puja. The motifs of fish and lotus are not merely decorative; they are researched symbols of auspiciousness and divinity, turning a traditional garment into a sacred offering.

Here I am with my completed work, "PoornaChandrika," a large commissioned painting of Devi Kamakshi. This piece took over a year and a half to complete, a testament to the slow, patient process of creating 'heartwork' that is deeply invested with research and devotion.

In "SETU," I explore a touching episode from the Ramayana. The artwork illustrates how Lord Rama acknowledges the humble efforts of a squirrel, bridging the gap between the mighty and the small. This piece reflects my focus on the philosophical and emotional depths within our epic tales.

About Fine Art & Painting Services

Why I Paint

For me, painting is not just work; it's my way of searching for meaning. I bring together research and pure gut feeling, mixing stories from Indian mythology with the boldness of Chola lines and the colours of Ajanta. I try to make my art a real offering, something deeper than just a pretty picture.

What I Love to Create

My focus is on Indian mythology painting and philosophy – think stories of Devi, Shiva, and Vishnu. Whether it’s Lalita Tripurasundari’s energy, Shiva’s wanderings, or epic moments from the Ramayana, I spend hours in scriptures so that every image feels alive.

Each piece is a ‘heartwork’, not just art for sale.
I blend Phad art-inspired mural styles with miniature and sculptural traditions.
My best hours are early morning, during brahma muhurtam – that’s when the work truly breathes.
The Chakshudaan (painting the eyes) is a special moment for me, always.

What You Can Get

Custom mythological artwork for your home, temple, or collection.
Large-scale storytelling through fine art murals, turning walls into narratives.
Hand-painted ritual textiles like sarees, all with sacred, researched motifs.

If you want something personal and are patient with the slow art process, I’d love to work together to bring a piece of these stories into your space.

My Story

Namaskar, I’m Himanshu. Grew up in Prayagraj, surrounded by dance and colors. My gurus—especially my mother, Smt. Kamalini Nagarajan Dutt—shaped everything I do. Lost her, but her lessons walk with me. I see Bharatanatyam and painting as one big sangam, mixing Chola lines, Ajanta colors, and Phad technique. My Ph.D. even tied dance to sculpture. I dance, paint, and research to keep Amma’s vision alive. Art is my way to ask, ‘when next?’

My Work

What I Offer - Thematic Bharatanatyam productions (solo, duet, collaborations), painting exhibitions with art talks, and research-based workshops on Indian art and mythology.

My Approach - It’s never just about performing. I dig into shastras, epics—stories like Shikhandi and Ras-E-Raskhan—then shape them for today.

Art Meets Dance - My painting style—Chola-inspired lines, Ajanta colors—feeds my choreography. Both arts live together at @thenatyachitra.

Stories Close to Me - Solo acts like Shikhandi and UnEklavya aren’t just tales, but questions. I want audiences to feel, to think, to connect.
