About Indian Art & Paintings
What Drives Us
I grew up surrounded by Indian art, and now, with Tarang Arts, I get to share that obsession. My focus? Keeping ancient art forms like Tanjore painting with gold foil alive, but in ways that actually fit modern homes and budgets.
Our Offerings
- Tanjore paintings are our main thing. Each one uses real 22-karat gold foil and Jaipur stones. It’s a slow process - think hundreds of hours, every detail done by hand.
- We don’t stick to just one style. There’s flat (2D), semi-embossed, and full 3D looks. Some folks want subtle, others love the bold, raised effect.
- Not just Tanjore. I also work with Kerala mural wall art, glass paintings, and sometimes mix things up with traditional Indian fusion canvas art. Think modern meets classic.
- If you want something personal, I can do custom pieces - pick your deity, scene, size, or style, and I’ll work with you till it’s perfect.
Why Tarang?
Everything’s made in India by our small team. No factory stuff. When you buy from me, you’re helping keep local artists and their skills going. I’m honest - these take time, and sometimes a piece isn’t perfect, but that’s kind of the point. It’s real.
