My Art Travels: Live sketching across borders
For me, the canvas is wherever I stand. From 30,000 feet in the air to art galleries in Colombo or cafes in Bali, I bring my art to you, wherever you are.
I was so happy to announce my participation in an International Group Exhibition in Colombo, Sri Lanka. It is always exciting to share my work with a new audience.

About My Art Travels
People often ask if I need a fancy studio to work, but my favourite pieces happen in the most unexpected places. Whether I am sketching for a fellow passenger on a flight to Bali or presenting live at an exhibition in Colombo, the process stays the same: a simple signature becomes a story. It is about connecting with people, one sketch at a time, no matter the geography.
Bringing Art to the World
I believe art is not something that stays locked in a room. It is a living, moving thing that happens in the moment. When I travel, I don't just see new places, I find new faces to draw and new stories to capture.
My travel-based art sessions are completely spontaneous. I have spent time at the Lionel Wendt Art Gallery in Sri Lanka, sharing the stage with fellow artists and demonstrating live sketching, and I have also sat in cafes in Ubud, Bali, turning signatures into art for locals and travellers alike.
Why Hire a Travelling Artist?
- Unique Guest Engagement: If you are planning an event in a different city or a destination wedding, I bring the same high-energy performance that I do in my home studio in Guwahati.
- Adaptability: Whether it is a corporate gala in Mumbai, a wedding in Hyderabad, or an international cultural event, I adjust my setup to fit the venue. From sketching on a flight tray table to performing speed painting on a grand stage, I am comfortable in any environment.
- Personal Connection: My goal is to break the ice. Signature art is personal and fast, making it perfect for events where you want guests to feel seen and valued rather than just entertained.
I carry my own markers, cardstock, and passion for the craft everywhere I go. If you want to add a touch of authentic, live creativity to your upcoming event, let us chat about where we can make it happen.
