About Custom Portrait Painting
What I Do
Art for me is personal. I love turning your stories into something you can touch and see every day. You send me a photo, I make it into a hand-painted portrait. Doesn’t matter if the photo’s purana (old) or not the best quality - I can still work with it and bring the memory back in a new way.
Styles You Can Pick
My portraits come in two main vibes:
- Colorful & Vibrant: Full of energy, bold colours, and a bit of abstract in the background. This style really makes the subject pop. It’s best if you like something modern and lively - basically, ekdum mast (super cool).
- Classic & Realistic: More traditional, softer colours, and focus on getting a real likeness. Perfect for those who want a realistic memorial portrait or just a timeless look.
What Can Be Painted
- Couple portraits (super popular as a personalized anniversary gift painting)
- Family canvas painting - group everyone together, even from different photos
- Solo portraits - capture your own swag or someone you love
- Memorials - I can paint from old photos for those no longer with us
How It Goes
- You send your photo and share what you want
- I sketch, then paint by hand with acrylic or oil on stretched canvas
- I pack it safely and ship anywhere in India
Each piece is original, not a print, and I only use pro materials. I’m always working on getting better - bas, I want you to feel happy when you see your painting.

My Story
Art is my heartbeat, my escape, my job. Kudla is home, Tulunadu is my soul. If you’ve seen my murals, you’ve seen Yakshagana or Pilivesha dancing on walls – that’s me, painting our stories. Lost 20kgs too, gym taught me discipline. 'Be Proud, But Never satisfied' – I keep that for both my art and fitness. Not at my peak yet, something wild is always cooking.
My Work
All Kinds of Art - I do custom canvas paintings, doodle art, family portraits, and big wall murals about Mangalore culture.
Wall Murals that Stay - My murals last over 15 years. I use spray, doodle, and Mangalore mural painting styles.
Colorful Portraits - Love making couple and family paintings. Mostly acrylic or oil, a Pilivesha canvas portrait is a favorite.
Art Restoration - I restore old paintings, even from 1935. Bringing history back feels special.
