It is the messy, vibrant, and deeply personal journey that brings a piece of art into existence. Here is a peek into how I turn blank spaces into stories. ## Photos and videos - [Video: This video captures the beginning of my artistic process, which often starts outdoors. I find that being in nature helps me channel a calm and focused energy, which I then translate onto the blank canvas.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/26e6af87-0495-4a8f-86e5-d03d7d7fe30e) - ![The aftermath of a creative session.

Whether you are commissioning a graphite portrait or a 12-foot abstract mural, this initial consultation is how we align on the mood, the color palette, and the story the piece should tell. Every painting I create is a collaboration. When you reach out, we start with a chat. If you are in Namma Bengaluru, we can meet to talk about the space, the light, and the vibe. If you are elsewhere in India, we jump on a call to bounce ideas around until we find the right direction. ### The Mediums That Matter - **Canvas Work:** For portraits and statement pieces, I use heavy-body acrylics on gallery-wrapped cotton canvas. This gives the art texture and longevity. I finish these with a double coat of varnish to protect against UV, moisture, and dust. - **Paper Portraits:** For my pencil sketches, I exclusively use 180 GSM acid-free artist paper. These are finished with a professional fixative spray to ensure they don't smudge while traveling to you. - **Murals:** My wall work ranges from nature scenes and Warli folk art to custom branding. I prefer working with textured finishes that bring a flat wall to life. ### The Logistics Shipping art is a sensitive process. For inter-city orders, large canvases are often shipped rolled in a sturdy tube to prevent frame damage, while smaller items and portraits are packed flat between reinforced hardboards. I want the piece to arrive in your hands exactly as it left mine. Let’s talk about your space—whether it is a boring office wall or a home corner that needs a little soul. ## About Sadharika Murals I’m Inchara, and for me, art is pure energy. I love that messy moment when paint turns a dead space into something alive, whether I’m sketching a detailed portrait or covering a wall in vibrant murals. Let's create something real together.
