I take your favorite photos and turn them into something you can actually hold - a piece of your life, made with my hands. Whether it’s a solo shot, a family moment, or even your pet, I put my heart into every portrait. ### Styles I Offer - Realistic pencil portrait is my go-to. Black and white, super detailed, and honestly, it feels like the person is right there. - Want color? I do vibrant oil paintings on canvas, plus abstract and geometric styles if you want something hatke (different). - Spiritual deity painting is close to my heart. I make portraits of Maa Durga, Lord Shiva, Ganesha, and more, with full devotion. - If you’re into quirky stuff, I can do pen & ink, anime, or cartoon style too. ### What You Can Get - Anniversary couple sketch for those special milestones. - Personalized family artwork, including pets - because they’re family too. - Individual portraits, tributes, or fan art of your favorite celeb or character. ### How It Works You send me your photo and idea, I get to work. I use thick, premium paper for sketches and quality canvas for paintings. I’ve made art for 500+ clients, so you’re in safe hands. Once done, I pack it up and send it your way. ### Why Choose Me I care about every detail, from the materials to the final touch. My art is meant to last, not just hang on a wall. If you want your memory turned into a masterpiece, bas (that’s it), let’s make it happen. ## Highlights Browse through Khushi Sharma's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/indianartkhushi/custom-portrait-art/featured) - [Video: This is where the magic happens.

Art is my whole world, really. I used to be super shy, but now, main sab kuch share karti hoon (I share everything) - the messy bits, the wins, all of it. I’m on this wild mission to hit 5 lakh rupees and 5 lakh followers in 100 days. Sometimes I’m up at 3 AM painting or learning something new, just because I love it. Stay tuned, kyunki asli journey abhi shuru hui hai (the real journey has just started). ### My work - **What I make**: Realistic portraits, anime paintings, devotional art, and custom hand-painted T-shirts, shirts, handkerchiefs, and keychains. - **Wearable art**: I paint memories and cute personalized couple doodle art on clothes and hankies, each piece unique for you or your pasandida sathi. - **Art with feelings**: Some days it’s emotional portrait sketch showing pain, some days it’s happy anime or Lord Jagannath on pipal leaf. Depends on my mood. - **Handmade, always**: Everything - even the filler paper - is handmade with love. Over 500 clients, every order matters to me. ## More services from Khushi Sharma - [Custom Hand-Painted Apparel & Accessories](https://mytribe.in/indianartkhushi/custom-hand-painted-apparel-accessories) · ₹800-4,500 per item (estimate) - [Specialty Custom Paintings](https://mytribe.in/indianartkhushi/specialty-custom-paintings) · ₹1,200-9,000 per painting (estimate) ## Book To book Khushi Sharma, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Custom%20Portrait%20Art%20by%20Khushi%20Sharma.)
