My Art Workshops and Creative Journeys
Art is a journey of finding your own story, and I am here to help you start yours. From relaxing paint and sip evenings to immersive heritage painting excursions, explore the various ways we can create together.
Come paint and sip with me. These sessions are all about having a good time in a relaxed cafe setting. I guide you through every step, so whether you are a complete beginner or just looking for a creative evening, you will leave with a piece of art you are proud of.
Art is not always confined to a studio. Here we are at the magnificent Lepakshi Temple, where we spent the day immersed in history, poetry, and painting. These immersive art journeys are a chance to connect with our heritage and creativity in a profound way.
It was a true honor to be chosen to represent India for the United Nations' SDGs Through Arts initiative. This painting, focused on 'Life Below Water', was my contribution to a global project that uses art to highlight the world's most pressing sustainability goals.
There is a simple joy in getting your hands messy with color. This is me creating a vibrant rainbow gradient using soft pastels. My workshops are about this kind of tactile, hands-on exploration where you can feel the connection between yourself and the art you are making.
This video captures the energy of 'Break the Silence', a large scale art for charity event I helped organize with FICCI FLO. It brought together art exhibitions, masterclasses, and powerful conversations to raise funds and awareness for mental health and education.
The process of painting botanical art with watercolors is slow and meditative. Each brushstroke builds upon the last to bring a flower to life on paper. In my masterclasses, we explore techniques like this to help you find your focus and create detailed, beautiful work.
This is me in my natural element, on the floor surrounded by paint and canvases. I am truly obsessed with art, and I bring that passion into every workshop. These colorful horse paintings were the subject of one of my recent Paint & Sip events.
About Featured
You'll notice my work spans from relaxed cafe sessions to intense heritage explorations, but the core remains the same: it’s about the process, not just the final result. Whether you are grabbing a canvas for a Paint & Sip evening or joining a deep-dive masterclass, expect a hands-on environment where you can get your hands messy, ask questions, and find your own artistic voice without any judgment.
My approach to teaching is built on the belief that everyone has an 'apni kahani'—a story of their own—that deserves to be told through art.
The Way I Teach
I organize my creative sessions into three distinct tiers so there is something for everyone, whether you are picking up a brush for the first time or looking to refine your technique:
-
Paint & Sip Sessions: These are for the days you just want to unwind. Hosted in cozy, premium cafes around Bangalore, these 3-hour sessions are about good vibes, a glass of wine or coffee, and a guided painting process. You don't need experience here; you just need to show up.
-
Mixed Media Masterclasses: If you want to dive into the technical side, these sessions are for you. We focus on texture pastes, gold leafing, and wood panels. It is a more intimate setting, perfect for learning the nuances of tactile art and experimenting with materials you might not have at home.
-
Heritage Art Excursions: Sometimes, the best way to paint is to be in the middle of history. We take full-day trips to places like Lepakshi, where we sketch on-site and connect our work to the stories of the temple walls.
Art for a Cause
You will often see me blending my work with charity initiatives. I believe art should be a vehicle for impact, which is why events like 'Break the Silence' (supported by FICCI FLO) are so close to my heart. When you join these workshops, you are often contributing to causes like education or mental health awareness, making the creation process even more meaningful.
