About

Sand is my way to connect with Vasudaiva Kutumbakam (the world as one family). Every grain is different, but when I create, they come together - just like us. My art lives at the crossroads of earth and imagination, sometimes on canvas, sometimes on a screen.

What You’ll Find in My Work

• Physical Sand Paintings: Not just decor. These are stories set in sand, framed and ready. I work with all sizes, big and small.
• Thematic Experiments: I mess around with texture and colour.
  • Eco-art, inspired by nature and the ‘go green’ vibe. Think sprouting seeds, flying birds.
  • Spiritual pieces for moments of devotion - Lord Shiva, Lord Ram, Buddha. Hara hara Mahadeva!
  • Patriotic art for national events because, Mera bharat mahaan (India is great).
• Custom Portraits: I can turn memories or icons into sustainable sand painting. Public figures, family, you name it.

Sand Meets Tech: Digital Art & NFTs

Some works start as sand, then move into the digital world - my ‘Sanddigi’ style. I use tech to remix my sand pieces, making them pop as spiritual digital artworks or even limited-edition NFT collections.

Earth, spirit, tech, and a bit of Jai Hind! That’s my art.
