Bringing scripts closer to home. Whether it's a cherished poem or a personal message, I turn these beautiful languages into art you can keep.

This piece features the Gurmukhi letter 'ਘ' (Gha) for 'ਘਰ' (Ghar), which means home. I created a cityscape with watercolors to represent the feeling of home I found during my travels in Assam.

The Gurmukhi letter 'ਗ' (Ga) for 'ਗੱਲਬਾਤ' (Galbaat), which means conversation. I illustrated this with colorful speech bubbles to represent the beauty of a good chat.

For the Gurmukhi letter 'ਖ' (Kha), which stands for 'ਖੂਬਸੂਰਤ' (Khoobsoorat) or beautiful, I created this intricate floral doodle. It's a style I find very meditative and joyful.

This was my first piece for the #35daysofgurmukhi challenge, featuring 'ੳ' (Oora). The word I chose was 'ਉਮੀਦ' (Umeed), which means hope. It felt like the perfect way to start the journey.

I experimented with 3D lettering for the Gurmukhi letter 'ਕ' (Kaka). It was a challenge to figure out the perspective, but I was happy with how this bold, block-style letter turned out.

This is the Gurmukhi letter 'ਅ' (Aira), done in a bevel style with gouache paint. I love the combination of the bright yellow background with the grey and black shading.

Another bevel lettering piece, this time for the Gurmukhi letter 'ੲ' (Eeri). I played with four shades of grey and teal to create the 3D effect.

My attempt at 3D lettering for 'ਸ' (Sassa). There was a lot of trial and error with the perspective, but that's all part of the learning process.

The Gurmukhi letter 'ਹ' (Haha), which is an emotion in itself. This was another fun experiment with beveled, 3D-style lettering using gouache.

About Calligraphy in Devanagari & Gurmukhi

Creating a piece in Gurmukhi or Devanagari isn't just about the ink; it's about finding the right rhythm for your specific text. When we work together on these scripts, I help you select paper and ink combinations—like metallic gold or deep Sumi black—that enhance the natural flow of the letters, ensuring the final piece feels balanced, authentic, and ready to frame.

I’m Sarika. Five years ago, I didn't know the difference between scripts, but today, Gurmukhi and Devanagari are how I connect with my heritage. I don't just write letters; I piece together emotions into keepsakes, using quality gouache and ink to ensure your words look as beautiful as they feel.
