Every painting I make is a quiet story. Sometimes it’s a prayer, sometimes just a memory I try to hold onto. My brush isn't only copying a face - I'm chasing a feeling, a truth, a moment. ### What I Paint: Real Moments, Real Emotions - I mostly work in realism, focusing on the soul of the subject. - Portraits are my way to capture a person's real essence, not just their look. I try to lock in memories, like the smile of a kid or the wise look in an elder’s eyes. Pet portrait commissions are also welcome - they’ve got their own spark. - Sometimes I paint spiritual and mythological art, especially custom deity paintings of Lord Shiva or Shree Ram. These works are part prayer, part devotion. - If you’ve got a special idea, I can make book cover illustrations or unique scenic compositions. Your vision, your story. ### Materials I Use - Watercolor realism portraits are my strength. I layer colors for depth and mood. - Oil for classic, bold pieces. - Acrylic for something punchier, graphite for monochrome vibes and light play. ### Why I Paint There’s no rulebook. Jo dil kare, wahi karna chahiye (do what your heart wants). For me, that’s making art. For you, *aap kuch bhi kar sakte ho* (you can do anything). ## Highlights Browse through Uday Bhan's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/uday_bhan_official/custom-realistic-artwork/featured) - ![This watercolor portrait captures the pure, uninhibited joy in a smile that has seen a lifetime.

Rangon se kahaniyan rachta hoon - I don’t just paint, I let the colors speak. When I paint Mahadev or Krishna, it’s not planned, it’s just me, surrendering, letting the art happen. Faces, wrinkles, old walls, even my daughter Ishanvi - sab kuch mein kahani hai (everything has a story). My art is where I find peace, and sometimes, a little magic. ### My work - **Commissioned Artworks**: I create custom watercolor, graphite, and oil paintings - from spiritual figures to daily life scenes. - **Portraits with Soul**: My portraits capture emotions, stories, and the real depth in every face. I love painting people. - **Spiritual & Everyday Scenes**: Shree Ram, Krishna, Shiva, or simple moments - I paint what moves me, with realism and feeling. - **Online Watercolor Courses**: Join my live workshops - beginner watercolor course, advanced realistic watercolor workshop, all with personal guidance. ## More services from Uday Bhan - [Online Art Courses & Workshops](https://mytribe.in/uday_bhan_official/online-art-courses-workshops) · ₹4,500-7,000 per 6-8 session course (estimate) ## Book To book Uday Bhan, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Custom%20Realistic%20Artwork%20by%20Uday%20Bhan.)
