About Me

Hello, I'm Divvyesh Makavana, a pencil artist based in Surat, Gujarat, India. I've been drawing since childhood, but began pursuing art professionally in 2020. My work focuses on capturing the subtle details and emotions that often go unnoticed in our fast-paced world.

I specialize in realistic pencil drawings, with a particular interest in portraits. Each piece typically takes between 8 to 10 hours to complete, as I meticulously build layers of graphite to create depth, texture, and contrast.

When I'm not drawing, you can find me Reading and Learning New Things About Art, which often inspire my artistic practice.

My Process

My artistic process begins with inspiration, which can come from anywhere – a fleeting moment, a compelling photograph, or a powerful emotion. I start with loose sketches to explore composition and form, then gradually refine the drawing, building up layers of graphite to create depth and dimension.

I primarily work with [your preferred materials], which allow me to achieve the level of detail and contrast that defines my style. Each piece is a journey of patience and precision, often taking [timeframe] to complete.
