About Featured
When you book me for live events or custom art, I focus on sketching your personality, not just your likeness. I work digitally on my iPad, which means I can share the final high-resolution file with you immediately. If you have a specific pose, outfit, or background element in mind for your couple or group portrait, tell me during our consultation so I can weave those details directly into the artwork.
My process is designed to be as personal as the memories you want to capture. Every piece, from a quick live sketch at a wedding to a complex, multi-element doodle storyboard, begins on my iPad. This digital approach allows for precision and flexibility, ensuring you get a print-ready file at 300 DPI that works perfectly for A4 frames, mugs, or digital invitations.
How I Work
- Live Event Caricatures: I bring my setup to your venue, sketch guests, and offer them a digital keepsake on the spot. It works for everything from store openings to corporate team celebrations.
- Custom Portraits: You send your photos and ideas. I sketch, we refine, and I deliver high-resolution JPEGs and PNGs. This is great for anniversary gifts, wedding invites, or pet portraits.
- Storytelling Art: My doodle art style is for when you need to pack a whole story into one frame—like a city's culture or a brand's journey.
Why Digital Matters
Unlike traditional pencil sketches, my digital illustrations are future-proof. If you ever need to change a file format, resize it for a large poster, or add a person to a family group portrait later, I have the master files ready to go. My work is inspired by my roots in Dapoli, Kokan—I aim to put that same sense of joy and nostalgia into every line I draw. Whether it is a 'Bhovra' (spinning top) illustration or a corporate team 'rocket ship' design, I want the art to reflect the real you.

I am a Mumbai-based artist, but my heart stays in my village of Dapoli. I believe a good caricature should be more than just a drawing—it should be a memory that makes you laugh every time you look at it.
