Portraits for the Nation: Dignitaries & Leaders

I have been blessed with the opportunity to create official and personal portraits for some of India's most respected figures, including Chief Ministers, judges, and military leaders. Each painting is crafted with the dignity and gravitas befitting their stature, aiming to create a timeless piece of national heritage.

Family & Couple Heirlooms

My greatest joy is capturing the bond between loved ones on canvas. I create custom solo, couple, and family portraits that become treasured heirlooms, preserving your precious moments for generations to come. These are available in oil, acrylic, and mixed media.

Memorial Portraits: Recreating Memories

I specialize in bringing memories of loved ones back to life. Using old or faded photographs, I can create a heartfelt memorial painting, and can even combine individuals from separate photos into a single, unified portrait to honor their legacy.

The Art of the Sketch: Pencil & Charcoal

A sketch captures the raw essence of a subject. I offer detailed sketches in various styles, including hyper-realistic charcoal, graphite pencil, and my signature mixed-media format using color pencils with watercolor and acrylics for a vibrant finish.

Spiritual & Devotional Creations

For me, art is a form of sadhana, or spiritual practice. This collection features devotional paintings of deities and revered gurus, each created as an offering with deep bhakti and spiritual energy. I also create traditional Tanjore paintings with gold foil.

The Artist's Voice: Philosophy & Process

Art is more than technique; it is a philosophy. In these clips from various podcasts and interviews, I share my thoughts on my spiritual practice (sadhana), the value of handmade art in the age of AI, and the discipline required to turn passion into a profession.

Artistic Explorations

Art is also about pushing boundaries and exploring unconventional mediums. This small collection showcases some of my more experimental works, where I use unique materials to create a powerful and striking visual statement.
