Welcome

"I want my viewers to be engaged by my work; to Want to touch it and feel it and relate
to the moment captured. I like the idea of the viewer of my work to personally interact with my paintings as opposed to being someone who just views an image as a stand-alone object."

About the artist

October 25, 2010 @ 8:29 am

It's more than art... it's everything I am @ www.Jairala.com

In early 2008 I graduated Brooklyn College and quit my job to pursue my career as a freelance portrait artist. Needless to say, it's been a struggle and I've definitely hit a point so low that the only sensible thing to do was to get a "real job". (several times)

    Now 3 years later I've managed to remain standing as a freelance portrait artist. I've expanded my services to include Custom abstract paintings, Mural work, Interior decoration, Live figure painting, Art replication, Maternity portraits, children's portraits and Pet portraits.


Giving back

5% of my earnings from original paintings are given to charities that I'm involved with or a charity/non-profit org. of your choice. Please view this list of organizations that I contribute to.

    I made the self realization a few years ago that my passion is NOT art... Rather, it's a passion for creating; making something out of nothing specifically something new, beautiful and profound. (I'm an entrepeneaur at heart.) But it just so happens that I satisfy that passion through my artwork.
    It's for that reason that I realized why I can't lock myself down to one style. Rather, I want and need to experiment with everything as long
as it allows me to. . . . create.
    In my studio, you will find an Acrylic figure painting, next to a photo realistic oil portrait, next to huge airbrushed or painted abstracts, etc... (I can't help it)

The process

- Commissions: With every custom painting ordered, a half payment or smaller installment will be required before I start.

- Prints: Before you buy a print, please contact me as I will be able to offer you more options (paintings on sale, sizes, frames, variations, etc...)

- Classic portraits or figures:(photo realistic or painterly): You will email or mail me a photo reference from which I would create an oil or acrylic painting from.

- Abstracts: A custom abstract would involve me understanding your preferences and tastes. For example: Color scheme of your home,
subtle or WoW effect, 1 large canvas or divided.
*You can also buy one of my many available abstracts on sale or a print of it in any size.

- Murals and Interior decorative work: Same as abstracts. *except I will be in your home or business... drinking your iced tea :)

Exclusive Prints The artwork is professionally printed on canvas, then sent to my studio where I will add highlights, texture and slight variations of color. Your print will be one of kind!
(Prints do Not come stretched. ask me about having them stretched)
