Painted by hand in Chandigarh
Colour, loud enough to dance.
Rajbala Sharma paints at Saikriti Arts. Dance, devotion, and handmade colour. She teaches the same joy she puts on the canvas.
रंग जो नाचते हैं।
Taught from a real table.
Rajbala Sharma still lays the paper out herself.
Saikriti grew out of the classroom and stayed close to it. A first confident line. A dance painted in acrylic. A watercolour of Ganpati. A college file that looks considered, and a chart a teacher can actually hang.
Students come to the home studio in Chandigarh, or join online when the city is not the same one. Hindi or English, whichever the student thinks in. The pace is the pace of looking.
You sit down. You learn the next honest step. You leave with something you made.
Four ways to begin.
Fees are shared when you write. They depend on the group, the medium, and whether the work is a class or a deadline.
Children
Young hands
Drawing first, then colour, then a pattern they can finish. Small groups, a calm table, and the habit of completing a page.
Acrylic and watercolour
Colour, up close
Acrylic and watercolour the way she paints them: dance, devotion, and a canvas that is not afraid of gold.
Adults
Return to the page
Watercolour, acrylic, and drawing for people who loved art and then got busy. Bring a weekday evening or a quiet Sunday.
- A subject from her wall, then one of your own
- Colour mixing without fear
- One finished piece to take home
Schools and colleges
The deadline piece
Tell us the subject and the date. Charts, models, and project files, made so they look like someone cared.
What an hour here feels like.
A sketch of a class, not a timetable carved in stone. We match the hour to the student.
-
The table
Brushes already washed. Paper torn to the size of the idea, not the size of the pad.
-
Looking
One object. A few quiet minutes of seeing before anyone is allowed to be clever.
-
Colour
Paint goes down while it is still honest. Mistakes stay. They usually know something.
-
The wall
Work dries where everyone can see it. Praise is specific. So is the next correction.
Painted by Rajbala.
These are her own pictures, from the Saikriti Arts board. Dance, Ganpati, and the camels she made by hand.
Made because someone asked.
The studio has always taken work to order: the school model, the college file, the chart that has to be ready on Thursday.
- Charts Science, history, language, geography. Large enough to read from the back bench.
- Models Handmade models for school and college, built to survive the journey to class.
- Files Project files with a cover, a sequence, and lettering that does not shout.
- A piece for the house When the commission is not homework: a painting for a room, in a medium she teaches.
Write to the studio
Tell her who is coming to the table.
A name, the student, and what you hope the hour will be. This note opens WhatsApp so it actually reaches the studio.
The lane is shared once a visit is fixed. Classes run by appointment, at the studio or online.
