## About Custom Portraits & Illustrations

### Turning Memories into Art, My Way

I’m Sambhavita, and honestly, art has always been my late-night therapy. I love painting moments that mean something - the kind you want to look at again and again. If you’ve got a photo or a memory that makes you smile, I’d be happy to turn it into a custom illustration you can actually hold.

### What I Paint

- Faceless couple illustration is my go-to style - modern, clean, and all about the vibe of the moment.
- Want something more playful? I do cute, cartoony portraits with bold outlines and colours, and even Ghibli style portraits for a little magical touch.
- Pets get their share too! Custom pet painting in a realistic style, so your fur buddy is always with you.
- If you love nature or city scenes, I paint those as well - from cozy landscapes to famous artwork recreations.

### Your Art, Your Way

Pick your canvas:
- Hand-painted polaroid art on thick paper (these are my favs - super cute, easy to display)
- Classic stretched canvas (small or big, up to you)
- Wooden plaques if you want something hatke (unique)

Add your own twist:
- Scannable Spotify code for your song, dates, short quotes, names - make it super personal.

### Gifting That Actually Means Something

These make killer anniversary gift illustrations, birthday surprises, festival gifts, or honestly, just a random act of love. Every piece is painted by me, packed with care, and shipped anywhere in India.

If you want art that feels like you, you’re in the right place.

### My story

Hey, I’m Sambhavita. Painting’s my happy place, especially with dreamy light and zero interruptions. Roses, peonies, wildflowers - I’m obsessed, you’ll spot them everywhere in my work. I get ideas from gardens, sunsets, even anime sometimes. The best part? Making something that means a lot to someone. Once, a client cried happy tears over custom polaroids I made - that’s the stuff I live for. I just want to create tiny treasures that make people smile.

### My work

- **Customised Paintings & Gifts**: I make handmade illustrations (faceless, cartoon), custom polaroids, mini scrapbooks, cards, bookmarks, letters, phone case inserts.
- **Pinterest-style Handmade Gifts**: Everything’s got that aesthetic floral painting vibe - vintage letters, bows, hearts, and cute details.
- **Gifts for Special Moments**: I capture memories - first dates, matching Spiderman phone cases, romantic bookmarks. Great for anniversaries or just because.
- **DIY Ideas & Upcycled Art**: Love turning simple stuff into joy - painted paper bags, heart cards, DIY vintage letters. You can order or get inspired!
