## About Custom & Original Artwork

### What My Art Means to Me

Art, for me, is not just a skill. It’s how I process life and put my heart out there, especially when it comes to love in all its shapes. Sometimes it's scary to open up, but art keeps me grounded and honest. If you vibe with art that’s raw and real, you’ll probably find a piece here that just clicks.

### Original Pieces - Always Changing

I'm always making new work, so there’s usually something ready to buy. My ‘Hearts Collection’ is my ode to love - not just romance, but big self-love and warmth for life too. These are contemporary, sometimes chunky with palette knife texture, and sometimes wild with that unpredictable fluid art look. Colours go from bold pinks and reds to calm heart chakra greens and blues.

My other original fluid art canvas pieces are experiments - ocean vibes, abstract landscapes, and even some animal portraits. I sometimes mix in watercolours or extra brushwork, depending on what the piece needs.

### Custom Artwork - Your Story, My Canvas

If you want something more personal, I really enjoy making custom emotional artwork. Maybe you have a memory, a favorite colour combo, or even want a heart painting in Tiranga (tricolor) shades - I’m game. We’ll talk about what you want, and I’ll make it happen, no fuss, just open conversation.

### A Bit of Everyday Art

I also make handmade functional art like concrete coasters with mini acrylic pours. They’re quirky, practical, and each one is different. If you want a custom set, just let me know.

### How It Works

Ready art - just ask if it’s available. For custom stuff, we chat, I paint, and then I pack it safe and send anywhere in India.

## Meet your expert

[Surekha Sundaram](https://mytribe.in/maidenindia_art)

### My story

Hi, I’m Surekha. For ages, I tried fitting in, like a fish at a tree party. Social media? Burned me out. Then I just stopped chasing likes and started listening to my own heart. During COVID, I began painting hearts, just sending out a little love. My art is messy, honest, and it’s really just me, finding my way back to myself. If you’re chewing on your own frogs (struggles), I see you.

### My work

- **Original Paintings, Commissions & Workshops**: I make original art, take custom orders, and host painting workshops for groups or teams.
- **Acrylic Pouring & Fluid Art**: My go-to style! Messy, fun, and full of colors. Join my acrylic pouring workshop to get hands-on.
- **Textured & Abstract Hearts**: I’m loving texture and color theory lately, especially with my textured hearts painting series.
- **Live Art Stations at Events**: Catch me painting live at flea markets or events. I can create art inspired by your story, right there.
- **Custom Abstract Commission**: You pick the vibe, colors, and size. I’ll paint a unique piece just for you.
