Hand-Painted Wall Murals and Architectural Art
From cafe features to intimate pooja room details, I bring traditional and custom art directly onto your walls. Every piece is hand-painted, layer by layer, to fit your space perfectly.
This finished wall at Rasodu restaurant in HSR Layout shows how traditional design can create a warm, rustic ambiance. The combination of the textured ochre wall and the vibrant blue niches makes for a memorable feature wall.
A behind-the-scenes look at the process of painting the traditional niches. From the base coat to the final white border details, every step is done by hand to achieve an authentic, crafted look.
This pooja room was transformed with a serene Pichwai-inspired wall mural. The art features classic lotus motifs and holy cows, bringing a sense of peace and traditional Indian artistry to the sacred space.
Here I am carefully painting an Alpona border on the steps of a client's home. This traditional floor art adds a beautiful, welcoming detail to the entryway, blending seamlessly with the home's architecture.

Another angle of me at work, focused on creating the clean, intricate lines of the Alpona design. It's a meditative process that requires a steady hand.
Using a reference on my tablet, I ensure the traditional patterns are accurately translated onto the steps. Each swirl and line is placed with intention.

About Wall Murals & Architectural Art
Many people think murals are just for big commercial spaces, but I love working on the small details that make a home feel yours—like a Pichwai-inspired pooja room or a hand-painted Alpona border on your entryway steps. Whether you have a specific wall in mind or just a blank spot that needs some soul, I am happy to chat about how we can transform it, texture and all.
When I pick up a brush to paint a wall, I am not thinking about speed. I prefer the slow, meditative process of building a story layer by layer. Whether it is a vibrant tropical mural for a restaurant in HSR Layout or a serene Pichwai painting for a sacred pooja room, my goal is to make the art feel like it belongs to the architecture, not just sitting on top of it.
My husband Supraj and I work as a small team, tackling surfaces that range from rugged, textured walls to smooth, painted finishes. We handle everything from the initial color mixing to the final varnish that protects your mural from dust and moisture. If you are looking for something specific, like an intricate mandala or a traditional Mysore-style border, we can adapt the design to fit your space's lighting and furniture layout.
Because every wall is unique, I like to start with a conversation about your vision and the mood you want to create. We use professional-grade acrylics and techniques that ensure the art lasts, whether it is indoors or in a semi-outdoor garden setting. If you are in Bangalore or Mysuru and have a wall that feels a little too quiet, reach out. Let’s talk about how we can bring some character to it.
