Our journey & philosophy

Art isn’t just what we do. It’s how we live.

Alekhyam grew out of years of personal practice, teaching, and a simple idea: make art feel less intimidating and more like a daily, grounding ritual.

Our story

We’re artists who chose to build our lives around drawing, painting, and teaching. Alekhyam began as a small effort to share what we learnt the long way – clear fundamentals, practical methods, and the confidence to keep going even when a sketch or painting feels “not good enough”.

Why we teach

We’ve seen how art can calm a busy mind, create focus, and bring a sense of pride back into everyday life. Our happiest messages are from people who say, “I never thought I could do this,” or “I finally made time for myself again.”

How we see art

We believe in learning without fear. Art is a dialogue between you and the medium. The value lies in the hours you spend with your sketchbook or palette – observing, trying, correcting, and trying again. Results improve when the process feels safe, steady, and enjoyable.

Why people choose Alekhyam

A thoughtful space to practise, not just consume tutorials.

Learn from the comfort of your home, at your own pace, with courses and workshops designed for real-world schedules. Instead of random one-off videos, you move through guided journeys – with clarity on what to do, and why it works.
