Featured Original Art & Custom Paintings by Surekha
Discover a collection of textured hearts, fluid abstracts, and soulful custom commissions designed to bring warmth and meaning to your home.
This piece is a pure expression of love, created with thick, textured acrylics and a palette knife. The layers of blue, purple, and white swirl together, capturing the energy and movement of deep emotion. It's a perfect example of my signature heart paintings, designed to bring a vibrant, soulful touch to any space.
This custom commission was a special one, a heart painted in the colors of the Indian flag. It shows how we can work together to create a piece that holds personal meaning for you, whether it's celebrating heritage, a memory, or a specific feeling. The thick, expressive strokes represent the beautiful diversity of life.
I love capturing the power and tranquility of nature, and this fluid art piece is my interpretation of a crashing ocean wave. Using various shades of blue and white, the acrylic paint flows to create organic patterns and a sense of dynamic movement. This shows my work beyond the Hearts Collection, perfect for bringing a piece of the ocean indoors.
Seeing my art in its new home is one of the best feelings. This client chose a pair of my heart paintings to create a serene and loving atmosphere above their bed. This is how art can transform a room, adding personality and a focal point that speaks to you.
Art can be functional too. I create these handmade concrete coasters, each with a unique, miniature acrylic pour. They are a great way to bring a pop of color and abstract art to your daily life. You can get a matching set or mix them up for a more eclectic look.
Here I am, talking a bit about my process and my upcoming Hearts Collection. For me, art is a journey, and I love sharing it. This video gives you a little insight into the ideas behind my work, from custom commissions and workshops to my passion for color theory.
This piece is an example of an embellished acrylic pour, where I combine the fluid, abstract background with brushwork to create a specific form. The intense eyes of the owl emerge from the earthy tones, showing how I can create unique animal portraits with a modern, abstract twist.
This heart was created with a fluid art technique, resulting in these beautiful, delicate cells and soft blending of colors. It has a completely different feel from my textured pieces, showing the variety within my Hearts Collection. It’s a softer, more dreamlike expression of love.
About Featured
When you commission a piece from me, it is more than just buying a painting. We start with a 20-minute video call to discuss your space and the specific vibe or memory you want to capture, ensuring that the final work is something that truly resonates with you.
My art practice is a journey of finding balance, and this collection represents the different ways I channel that energy. You will find two distinct sides to my work here. The first is my 'Hearts Collection,' where I use thick, textured impasto with a palette knife to create sculptural pieces that carry a sense of tangible warmth. These are intentional, built with layers of color theory and passion to celebrate self-love and connection. Then, there is my fluid art—where I let go of control. These pieces are all about the interaction of pigments, resulting in unpredictable, glossy patterns that feel like captured movement, whether it is an ocean wave or a chaotic abstract expression.
I believe art should exist beyond just the canvas, which is why I also create functional pieces like concrete coasters. These are practical, everyday items that bring a splash of color to your coffee table, each one a unique, miniature fluid pour. For those who want something deeply personal, I specialize in custom commissions. Whether you have a specific color palette in mind, a space that needs a focal point, or a story you want translated into paint, I am here to make it happen. Every custom commission includes a video consultation to ensure we are aligned, work-in-progress updates, and safe, eco-friendly shipping across India. My goal is simple: to create work that makes you feel something the moment you walk into your room.
