Original Watercolor Paintings and Portraits

When you look at these watercolor works, you are seeing a different side of my process. While my signature style usually involves bold, textured layers, watercolor demands a different kind of patience. It is about working with the light and the flow of the pigment, rather than fighting it.

I prefer using 300GSM Arches paper for these studies because it holds the pigment beautifully and allows for that archival lifespan I strive for in every piece. Whether it is a portrait of a Naga warrior or the dusty, vibrant streets of Rajasthan in 'Sun and Sand,' the goal remains the same: to create a space for you to stop, breathe, and notice the details that rushing through life makes us miss.

Since these are created on paper, they are quite different from the large canvases you might see in my other collections. They are perfect for intimate spaces, study rooms, or as a curated part of a larger wall gallery. Because they are shipped unframed, you have the flexibility to take them to your local framer and match the wood, glass, or mount board exactly to the colors in your room. If you are in Bangalore, come by the gallery in Indiranagar to see how these catch the light in person. We can talk through the subject, the technique, and what makes these pieces a unique addition to your home.
