I. The Beginning

It started with paint on a table.

In 2018, the first canvas was painted by hand — palette knife strokes in ochre and sienna, thick and textured. No studio, no team. Just a table, some paint, and the intention to make something worth hanging on a wall.

II. The Design

One painting became a collection.

Hand-painted elements became the building blocks of something larger. We started taking on custom projects — murals for cafes, art for hotel lobbies, collections for interior designers — each piece customised by hand, each composition unique. The art wasn't just for frames anymore. It was for walls.

III. The Collections

One painting became a hundred.

Individual pieces became collections — dark botanicals with peonies and hummingbirds, chinoiserie gardens on emerald grounds, atmospheric landscapes in earth tones. Each collection starts with hand-painted elements, then gets composed and refined into scenic murals and original artworks.

IV. The Studio Today

Handmade, designed, customised.

Today, Kolorkaari creates art collections in multiple styles, takes on custom mural and design projects, and mentors a growing team of independent artists. The core hasn't changed — every piece still starts by hand.

The Studio

India-based. Globally delivered.

Kolorkaari is a handmade art studio founded by Ankit Ahuja in 2018. Based in India, we work with a team of independent artists to create original artwork and execute wall murals for restaurants, lounges, hotels, and commercial spaces.

Jungle noir mural in upscale lounge bar

Wall Mural · Hospitality

A lounge bar wanted a mural that made every guest reach for their phone.

Our artists painted a jungle noir scene directly on the main wall — dense tropical foliage with hidden leopards and parrots in dark greens, blacks, and bronze. The bar became one of the most photographed spaces in the city. Hand-painted on site over five days.

We created over a thousand original artworks across nine collections — Steel Horizon, Sage & Stone, Sand Drift, Blush Reverie, and more. Each piece started as a hand-painted study, then was refined, colour-graded, and produced as gallery-quality prints on archival paper and canvas.

"Creative freedom is not a perk — it's how the work gets made. We give artists the space, the projects, and the trust to paint what they see."
