A little personal context: I’m a fresh law graduate, but my parents don’t want me to pursue law professionally, so I’m currently spending most of my time at home. I’m also not really allowed to use Instagram or Facebook, which makes trying to build an online presence or do content creation quite difficult. So I’m trying to find a way to make something of my own from home, using the skills I already have, rather than letting my time and effort go to waste.

Hi! I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, so apologies if it isn't

I'm a fresh law graduate, and I've recently found myself in a strange position. I studied law, but I’m currently not really in a position to pursue it professionally. My parents aren't supportive of me practising law, so for now, I'm trying to figure out how I can build something from home and earn through something I genuinely love doing.

And that thing is painting.. I'm also not really allowed to use Instagram/Facebook, which makes the whole art/content-creation route quite difficult. I had thought about creating art content and building something online, but that's not really an option for me right now.

So instead, I'm trying to put my actual painting skills to use from home.

I work with acrylic and gouache, and I can paint pretty much any size and subject — portraits, pets, historical figures, architecture, landscapes, custom concepts, gifts, etc.

Adding some of my recently completed commission work here..

I'm basically trying to turn all the time I spend painting at home into something of my own, rather than letting the skill go unused.

If you're looking for a custom hand-painted piece, I'd genuinely love to work on it.

Also I was ditched of a commission last week, i have got the materials, its a recreation of the painting 'Death of Socrates', gonna recreate with acrylic paints on canvas.

Hi everyone. This is a slightly more personal commission post than usual.

I’m a fresh law graduate based in Mumbai, and I've recently found myself in a strange position. I studied law and history, but I’m currently not really in a position to pursue it professionally. My parents aren't supportive of me practising law, so for now, I'm trying to figure out how I can build something from home and earn through something I genuinely love doing.

And that thing is painting.

I've been painting for years, particularly landscapes, people, animals and detailed compositions, and I'm now opening up commissions for acrylic and gouache paintings.

Adding some of my recently completed commission work here — including my Alexander & Diogenes painting and a gouache cat painting.

I'm hoping to change that going forward and start valuing my time and work more fairly.

So, I'm opening commissions for:

• Acrylic paintings
• Gouache paintings
• Pencil Sketches
• Pet paintings
• Historical / classical artwork
• Landscapes
• Custom concepts
• Pretty much anything you have in mind

Pricing will depend on the size, medium and complexity.

I'm not going to pretend I'm some established professional artist — I'm just someone trying to make a living from a skill I've spent years developing.

If you've ever wanted a painting made specifically for you, I'd genuinely love to hear your idea.

You can DM me here for commissions.

Even if you don't want a commission, an upvote/share would mean a lot. I'm just trying to get this little thing off the ground. ❤️

I made this as i feel, I have stopped recognizing myself properly. I am constantly surrounded by noise.. expectations, conversations, plans for the future, overthinking everything..yet internally I feel detached from all of it. The face is unfinished because that’s exactly how I feel: present physically, but mentally scattered into fragments.

The rough textures and broken layers were made using dried acrylic paint scraps and impulsive strokes, almost like emotional debris collected over time. I didn’t want the painting to look polished. I wanted it to feel unresolved, overstimulated, and heavy.. the way thought spirals feel at 2am when your mind refuses to rest.

At the same time, creating it felt strangely comforting. Like even in the chaos, I was slowly trying to reconstruct parts of myself again. Not complete... just somewhere between collapse and becoming.
