At the tender age of 5, a passion for art was ignited within me that has continued to burn brightly throughout my life. With over two decades of experience as an artist, art dealer, consultant and curator, I have dedicated my life to promoting and nurturing the creative talents of others. As the founder of Artistree, a company with a global reach spanning India, UAE and the UK, I have the privilege of bringing art to the forefront of people’s lives through a range of exciting initiatives.
At the heart of Artistree’s mission is the belief that art should be accessible to all, and our free art community, Artistree Collective, provides a vibrant platform for creative expression and collaboration. Through our art events, shows, educational workshops and talks, we aim to support upcoming artists and provide them with the opportunity to showcase their talents to the world.
As an art lover and advocate, I am proud to be working towards creating a world where art is celebrated and cherished, and where artists are given the recognition they deserve. Join us on this journey and be a part of the Artistree family today.

Our Services
Fine Art
Artistree offers a boutique fine-art sourcing and sales service for collectors seeking works from masters, established artists, and exceptional young talent. With access to private collections, galleries, and global networks, we curate a refined selection of meaningful and collectible pieces.
Each artwork is chosen for authenticity, artistic value, and long-term relevance. Our guidance includes insights into provenance, context, and market positioning, helping collectors make informed acquisitions that align with their vision.
Discreet, personalised, and rooted in connoisseurship, Artistree’s boutique approach supports collectors in building thoughtful, significant, and enduring fine-art collections.
Bespoke Projects
Artistree creates bespoke artworks that translate individual visions into meaningful, custom-designed pieces. Working closely with clients, we conceptualise and craft paintings, sculptures, installations, and site-specific works that suit the character and purpose of their space. Each commission begins with an understanding of personal style, narrative, and functional needs.
From residential settings to commercial environments, every detail — materials, technique, and scale — is chosen to harmonise with the architecture and ambience. With expertise in concept development, design refinement, production, and creative direction, Artistree ensures each bespoke piece is thoughtfully executed. Our custom creations enrich spaces with originality, craftsmanship, and artistic intention.
Art Consultation
Artistree provides personalised art consultation to help clients discover works that complement their spaces, preferences, and objectives. With an extensive network of artists and galleries, we curate selections that enhance architectural style and interior ambience. Our process includes site reviews, thematic planning, scale and style recommendations, and thoughtful comparisons tailored to client needs.
Each artwork is evaluated for quality, relevance, and long-term value. From discovery to decision-making, we offer clear guidance and a refined curatorial eye. Artistree’s approach ensures that chosen artworks elevate the environment while reflecting personality, intention, and aesthetic harmony.

Artistree offers personalised portfolio management for clients who view art as both cultural value and strategic investment. With access to masters, established artists, and rising talent, we curate collections aligned with each client’s taste and long-term goals. Our approach includes researching, sourcing, and assessing works based on significance, provenance, condition, and market trajectory.
Each portfolio is developed to balance aesthetic merit with investment insight. Beyond acquisitions, we provide guidance on documentation, valuations, conservation, and resale strategy. Artistree helps collectors make informed choices, build meaningful collections, and navigate the art market with clarity and confidence.
Curation
Artistree curates exhibitions and art experiences that combine storytelling, visual coherence, and emotional engagement. Each show is shaped through thoughtful selection, thematic clarity, and considered spatial design, allowing artworks to interact meaningfully with audiences and with one another.
We incorporate educational elements and accessible narratives that invite deeper exploration and connection. Our curatorial practice is rooted in artistic excellence, community engagement, and the belief that art should be inspiring and inclusive.
Through well-crafted exhibitions and cultural programs, Artistree brings people together, fosters dialogue, and creates memorable encounters that make art approachable, relevant, and enriching.
Philanthropy
Artistree uses creativity to support meaningful social causes and community well-being. Through public art initiatives, outreach programs, and collaborations, we aim to make art a catalyst for awareness and healing. This includes projects such as Leave of Absence, our mental wellness initiative, and Migraine Awareness, which gives voice to invisible struggles through artistic expression.
Our partnership with Pari supports children and underserved communities through art-based engagement, while Children’s Corner nurtures young learners with imaginative, confidence-building activities.
Artistree’s philanthropic efforts reflect our belief in art’s power to uplift, connect, and create positive impact where it is needed most.
