About Surface Pattern Design
My Art, My Therapy
I pour my heart into every surface pattern I create. Drawing started as my escape during lockdown, but now it’s my full-time thing. My doodles are personal, and animals - from my own pets to streeties - sneak into almost all my prints. If you love art that feels real and full of compassion, you’ll vibe with my style.
What I Do
I turn hand-drawn doodles into custom seamless patterns. My designs can be playful, bold, or elegant - depends on what you want. Sometimes I go all out with colour, sometimes I keep it simple with black-and-white. Each pattern is unique and tells its own story.
Where My Patterns Fit
- Custom wallpaper for your home (living room, kids’ room, even bathrooms)
- Fabrics for cushions, curtains, bedding, upholstery
- Table linens like runners, placemats, napkins
- Fashion prints for shirts, dresses, kids’ and baby clothes
- Stationery, gift wraps, notebooks, diaries
- Commercial products needing a standout look
Inspirations
Animals are my main thing - cats, dogs, elephants, toucans, you name it. I also draw Mumbai vibes (Kali Peeli taxis, auto-rickshaws, macchiwaalis), lush botanicals, and whimsical scenes like woodland tea parties. Sometimes I mix in ancient Greek elements for fun.
How We Work Together
I’m flexible with colours and themes. We’ll chat, share ideas, and I’ll send options till you’re happy. You get professional, production-ready files. Sometimes the process takes a bit longer if you want lots of tweaks, but I’m all about making it feel easy and genuine.

My Story
Hey, I’m Ishneet. 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.
