Mastering Detail in Every Stroke
“We excel in crafting paintings of various scales, meticulously attending to every detail. Whether it’s a single piece or a large-scale project, we ensure that our signature style and thematic elements shine through. Our paintings are characterized by intricate brushwork, vivid colors, and captivating compositions, providing a testament to our dedication to artistic excellence.”
“As an avid collector of Dhiren’s original works across all Mayfair properties I personally admire him as a creative artist, designer and illustrator in folds of applied and fine arts. His intuitive and bold use of powerfully coordinated colors and the ease in which he transforms a formal design structure into an ethereal , fantasy based beauty through a geometrically dominated form. And then rebuilding it within a contained area is the speciality and essence of his art.
As a soft spoken person with an intense interest in all kinds of art forms his enviable collection of Pichwais, sculptures, drawings are a collector’s dream.
I wish him many years of creativity. Breathing life into empty canvas.”
POOJA RAY (Managing Director, Mayfair Hotels & Resorts)
