A painting is not ordered. It is entrusted.
A painting made from your world
Before colour, composition, or craft, there is a conversation. The paintings that endure are rarely about appearances alone.

01
The Conversation
We speak about the idea and intent behind this artwork, focusing on what it means to you and the effect you wish it to have.
02
FINDING THE FORM
I share a rough composition that captures the spirit of the work before the first layer of paint is laid down.
03
THE MAKING
The painting forms slowly over the next few weeks. I share its progress as it finds its own character.
04
Coming Home
The finished work is signed, documented and carefully packed before it begins its journey to you.
AN INVESTMENT IN ORIGINAL ARTWORK
KEEPSAKES · A4 · A3
from 75,000 INR
Intimate works that fit anywhere but belong somewhere specific. Meant to be discovered by the few, not announced to the many.
CONVERSATION PIECES · A2 · A1
from 1,15,000 INR
The size I return to most often. Large enough to capture attention, small enough to invite a closer look.
LEGACY WORKS · Custom sizes
from 3,50,000 INR
Expansive, immersive artworks that allow a room to grow around them and invite a lifetime of rediscovery.
Every painting is created specifically for its collector. Final pricing reflects scale, complexity, and framing. A detailed quotation follows our initial conversation.
