About

Art is my daily chaos and calm. I’m mostly self-taught, and though I sketch and paint the old-school way, my favorite playground is digital. Using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, I mix bold colors, clean lines, and a bit of Tulunad energy into everything I make.

What I Create

• Stylized vector portraits - not photoreal, more pop-art. Think clean, modern, with that little twist that makes you look twice. These work great as profile pics or gifts.
• Culture in pixels - My Tulunad roots show up everywhere. I do Yakshagana digital art, Daivaradhane-inspired pieces, and illustrations of iconic Udupi spots. Each one’s got a bit of home in it.
• Scribble line art illustration - This one’s my signature. One wild, continuous line becomes a portrait. Sometimes messy, always lively. I can keep it simple or add color splashes.
• Pop-culture fan art vector - From Sandalwood to Hollywood, if I’m a fan, I draw it. Sometimes it’s just for fun, sometimes it’s for other fans like me.

How I Work

Everything’s made digitally, either on my laptop or iPad. You get a sharp, high-res file you can print anywhere - no fuss. I often share behind-the-scenes videos, so you see the mess before the magic.

If you want something personal or want to see your favorite tradition in a new light, let’s make it happen.
