The brand and the beginning of it all
About me
Hi! My name is Nalini Srinivas and I am the artist and creator of na_thebrand. My passion for art started when I was little, with drawings on walls and paper. All that inspiration and ardent love for artistry is what now represents the soul of the brand.
na_thebrand started in 2023 to feature art through stories, in the form of personalized handcrafted paintings. An artist by passion and a scientist by profession, I have found the right balance between creativity and technique.
Each art piece is crafted with a personal touch and a beautiful story.
After thorough consideration and support from dear friends and family, na_thebrand is now alive: a dedication to a lost soul. Gift your loved ones something unique, from your heart to theirs.

Testimonials
"I was thinking to order some gifts to France for my cousin who bought his very first home. With restrictions to shipping and finding authentic Indian gifts, I kind of gave up on that idea until I came across na_thebrand. I ordered a tray and a Madhubani photo frame for my cousin’s new home. I was able to get the items customized the way I wanted. The product was made and shipped earlier than what was promised, given that it’s all handmade. My cousin loved both the items and was very much surprised that I was able to find something so authentic and original. I would definitely recommend the na_thebrand. The brand was created with so much love , that it shows on the finished product. Give this business a shot I am sure you will NOT be disappointed."

"Anyone who KNOWS Nalini, would also know how creative she is. So much so that our professors would score her out of 120, just to give her those extra 20 for her beautiful calligraphic handwriting (JK). She dances, she sings and guess what she draws and paints too (surprised much!?). It's such a pleasure to witness her put this form of art into use for the benefit of the non-creatives such as I. I had a blast coming up with a gifting idea for my husband with na_thebrand. There were so many ideas bounced back and forth and Nalini was so patient with me through it all. I think it takes immense amount of talent to be able to visualize someone else's concept and bringing it to life on paper. Ofcourse the end result speaks for itself. I personally would recommend na_thebrand as your one stop shop for beautifully hand crafted gifting needs!! Check out her page for the magic she has created."
