A Peek into My Studio: Behind the Scenes of My Art
Come see where the magic happens. Here is a look at my workspace, my favorite art supplies, and the quiet, messy, happy moments behind my handmade creations.
Meet my 'mini me' and the youngest artist in the studio, my daughter Shravya. She already loves being surrounded by watercolors, brushes, and all my art supplies.
A quick flip through my sketchbook, where I'm always trying to create more art. This simple, repetitive leaf pattern is a form of art therapy for me, a way to relax and de-stress.
About A Peek into My Studio
When you commission a piece, you aren't getting something mass-produced. My studio is a constant mix of chaos and calm, where I balance motherhood with my love for watercolors, gouache, and digital illustration. My daughter, Shravya, is often right beside me, helping with the art, which is why you will see such a personal, eclectic mix of quirky themes in everything I create.
My process is rooted in the belief that art should be fun, therapeutic, and accessible. Because I work from my home studio in Bangalore, every piece receives my full, undivided attention, whether it is a small 4x4 canvas or a detailed 3D nameplate.
The Materials I Use
I prefer tactile, traditional mediums. You will see me using 300 GSM cold-press watercolor paper for cards and bookmarks, high-density MDF for nameplates, and professional-grade gouache for those vibrant, opaque colors. My digital work is done on Procreate, but even there, I strive for that hand-drawn, human feel. If you are ordering home decor like a shadow box or a hand-painted nameplate, you can expect durable, varnished finishes that are built to last.
Why Handmade Matters
Handmade art comes with character. You might notice slight variations in the brushstrokes or the layout—that is the signature of a human hand, not a printing press. I love incorporating Indian folk art elements, like Gond-inspired patterns, alongside modern, minimalist designs.
Let’s Create Together
If you have an idea for a custom project, we can make it happen. I love working on:
- Personalized Gifts: From custom journals to mini-canvas paintings.
- Home Decor: 3D nameplates for main doors or children's rooms.
- Storybook Illustrations: Capturing your special memories on paper.
Art is my stress-buster, and I hope it brings as much joy to your home as it brings to my studio. If you have a theme in mind—or even if you don't and just want something unique—send me a message. We can chat about the colors, the quotes, and the vibe you want for your space.
