Colour your way to Joy!!
‘Tune in’ - A Colouring book by Shivani A.
‘Tune in’ invites you to step away from the everyday, get curious with colours, and make each page your own. There’s no right way to colour, no perfect picture to create, just joy to discover along the way.
Pick up your favourite colours, follow your curiousity, and see where your creativity takes you.
Your colours. Your rhythm. Your way.
Love Notes from Art Playground participants
“This is such a beautiful experience. I can’t believe I can now draw from my imagination. I’ve seen many heartfelt dreams and now I have a technique to preserve them.”
- Geetanjali Pandey, 39 years
“It felt like a lid opened, and things just started to flow! Your tips and guidance made the process really easy, fun and playful.”
- Deepika, 41 years
“I found the process of making art with you very liberating. It gave me a safe space to express myself and helped me become more mindful of my thoughts and feelings.”
- Anusha, 24 years
“With all the pain, loss and past few intense weeks, I have felt love and compassion seep through me in this session. I was in total abandon and just flowing!
- Shwetha, 37 years
“Unlike the traditional method of instructional teaching, Shivani just lets us be. She creates a space of trust and inclusivity that broke my walls and let loose my vulnerability. The art making process made me realize art need not be perfect and constricted, but an inner celebration.
- Shanmitha, 32 years
“I loved how we played with a simple dot. It was thoroughly enjoyable how we related it to our different moods and phases of life. You make it sound so simple by saying we can just play with colours!
- Meena Sehgal, 72 years

A mixed media Artist, Illustrator and Creative Facilitator who believes that the real joy of art begins when we stop trying to get it right and start discovering what feels right to us.
As a child, I saw art largely as a practice of learning skills - getting the lines right, the perfection of drawing what one saw and making things as they were ‘supposed’ to be. Somehow, it felt disconnected from who I was and I slowly lost interest.
Art came back to me several years later as part of my inner journey. More than learning a technique, it became a way of connecting with myself and the world around me. I began to ‘feel’ my way through colours and forms, explore my imagination with doodles, characters and illustrations and create art that flowed out naturally from within me.
Through play, experimentation and the simple freedom to follow your curiosity, I invite you to come discover your own art.
