I am an amateur artist who discovered painting during the COVID days, not knowing it would grow into something meaningful. I mostly enjoy creating landscapes, and I love connecting with people who share a passion for art. If you ever want to meet, paint together, exchange ideas, or simply talk about creativity, please feel free to reach out. I’m always excited to learn from others.

I owe so much to my friends who encouraged me early on, to my mom Sunitha who constantly pushed me to keep going, to my dad who has been my biggest cheerleader, and now to Deepak, the man behind all of this.

This is just the beginning, and I would love to collaborate with fellow artists, or with anyone who wants to have fun with colours and imagination. Workshops, meetups, or just a casual chat about art. Tell me anything about painting, and I’m in.

I paint in Mysore. I am not taking commissions at the moment, but I would still love to hear from you.

This page carries a piece of my heart, but its foundation was laid by Deepak, my fiancé and soon-to-be husband, who has been the quiet strength behind this journey from the very beginning. Every bit of credit belongs to him, for seeing potential in me.
