Fashion design was my start, but honestly, doodling took over my life—thanks, pandemic! My cats (real bosses) are always around, sneaking into my art. Mumbai’s chaos, kaali-peelis, macchiwaalis, street animals—they’re my jam. My prints? Full of this city’s madness and heart. Art’s my way to show love and a bit of healing, both for me and, hopefully, for anyone who sees it. ### My work - **All the things I make**: Custom pet doodles, personal illustrations, Mumbai street animal art, wallpapers, textiles, even animated video invites. - **My style**: Whimsical, super-detailed, sometimes just black and white, sometimes a riot of colour. Always a story in there. - **Custom is my happy place**: I love making art packed with your stories, your pets, those tiny details that only you get. - **Mumbai & animals everywhere**: City chaos and street animals show up in my work a lot. Some pieces support animal welfare too.
