Different Strokes · since 2001

Colour, texture, and work made to be lived with.

I'm Simpy Bansal. For two decades I've worked in stained glass, ceramic, canvas and gold leaf — and lately in three dimensions, on consoles, cabinets and carved forms. Every piece is original, made by hand, and carries a story.

Blooming Symphony

3D Ceramic painting made on wood and framed in a wooden frame · 54” width × 78” height × 2” depth

This vibrant artwork combines traditional painting techniques with 3D elements. This style features vivid, bold hues that bring flowers to life, creating a sense of depth and realism. The petals, leaves, and other floral details will appear to leap off the wood base, engaging both sight and touch. Blooming Symphony serves as a captivating art piece, celebrating nature's beauty in an imaginative, modern form.

Different Strokes opened its doors in 2001.

Two decades of stained glass, Tanjore art and painting — and a studio practice that has since moved into texture, sculpture and functional form. Every piece remains deeply personal.
