When we tried to look for local businesses, Social Media wasthe one stop shop for it all! The talented personality who caught our attentionwas a teenager named Anushka Kapoor.
Whilegetting to know her and her small business, we asked her a couple of questions.We asked her about how she had come up with the idea of starting a smallbusiness she told us that her love to paint had a huge role to play in it.
Anushka told us that she had just finished her pre-boards and she randomlypainted her jeans for fun. Soon after she posted a story of the same on hersocial media , the response to which was very overwhelming as her friends andother followers showered her with compliments.
A lot of them wanted their pantsto be customized as well that’s when the idea of doing it as a small businesscame in. On being asked why Anushka chose to customize clothes and accessoriesand not anything else as a small business she expressed her love for paintingand how this small business was helping her earn money while doing somethingshe absolutely loved!
“ When people give completely different requests everytime, it helps me grow and experiment with my own capabilities. Every new orderhelps me take my skills one step ahead”
What makes Anushka’s art different from any other artist outthere is evident through her unique style and color choices, on being askedabout it she further explained about the aesthetic that she followed. “ It's amix of Indie trippy psychedelic paintings.
I usually express my emotionsthrough my paintings , for instance, when I’m angry I usually make the ‘Thirdeye’ which symbolizes bursting out with anger, when I’m confused or when I’munsure, I usually make a blurry eye, I usually add my own style to everything Ido to create my own aesthetic.
The advice that Anushka wanted to give to others her age whowere planning on starting their own business or something similar was that theywill get to experience a whole different world and learn a lot of new thingsduring the process.
The more the exposure, the more experience they will beable to gather for themselves and grow in the same process. It sure is hard totake the road less traveled and do something that people of her age were notdoing and during that process she expressed how difficult it had been to manageacademics along with her passion and not giving up has been her soul motto.
Themost important thing that Anushka mentioned about learning was managing timeand expenses which is a life skill and does not come that easy to everyone.
