Traditional Kerala Mural Paintings
I bring our culture to life through traditional Chuvarchithrakala. From mythological scenes like Geethopadesham to Radhakrishna, I paint stories on canvas and walls using the classic Panchavarna palette and careful dot shading.

About Kerala Mural Paintings: Stories on Canvas
The real beauty of a mural lies in the dot shading. I use the traditional Panchavarna palette (yellow, red, green, black, and white) and finish each piece with a double coat of clear synthetic varnish. This does not just give the painting a deep, glossy look, it also protects your art from dust and weathering, ensuring it lasts for generations.
When you choose a mural, you are bringing more than just decor into your home. You are inviting a story. Many clients ask if they should go for canvas or a wall painting. Canvas is perfect if you want the flexibility to move your art, especially with large pieces like my 200x120cm Anandashayanam works. Wall murals, however, transform the architecture of a room entirely, perfect for pooja rooms or living room feature walls.
My team and I handle the entire process. We start with the base preparation, then move to the detailed sketching of faces, and finally, the patient work of color filling. We use industrial-grade acrylics that hold up well in our climate. Whether it is the playful Unnikannan or the intense Geethopadesham, my goal is to keep the Kerala mural tradition alive in a way that fits modern homes. If you are worried about your space, remember that we can customize the size and theme to match your walls perfectly.
