Our Story
It started with a noisy mind
Arttykase didn't begin in a boardroom. It began at a kitchen table, late one evening, with a paintbrush and a mind that wouldn't stop racing.
We were looking for something a screen couldn't give us — a way to slow down that didn't come with a notification. Painting became that quiet place. And not just any painting: the intricate, rhythmic patterns of traditional Indian folk art, where every careful stroke pulls you a little deeper into the present moment.
The problem with “beginner” art
There was just one catch. Most art made for beginners still starts the same intimidating way — a blank canvas, a blank mind, and no idea where to begin. For anyone who's ever thought “I'm just not artistic,” that empty white space is where the calm ends before it even starts.
So we made the kits we wished existed.
Every Arttykase board arrives with the design already pre-marked, waiting for you. No sketching, no guesswork, no pressure to be “good.” You simply pick up a brush and begin — and somewhere in the color and the quiet, the racing mind finally goes still.
Who we are
Today, Arttykase is a small, close-knit team based in the U.S., united by one belief: making art shouldn't be reserved for “artists.”
Our kits carry centuries-old Indian traditions — the bold lines of Madhubani, the devotional detail of Pichwai, the elegance of Mughal miniature, and the meditative symmetry of the mandala — and place them, gently, into the hands of complete beginners. Each one is a doorway into a slower, more mindful kind of creativity, and a small tribute to the artists and regions these forms come from.
What we promise you
- No experience required. If you can hold a brush, you can do this.
- Everything in one box. A pre-marked board, artist-grade paints, brushes, and a clear step-by-step guide.

- Shipped from the USA, backed by a 30-day happiness guarantee. If your kit doesn't bring you joy, we'll make it right.
Unbox. Paint. Breathe.
We're not here to turn you into a master painter. We're here to give you permission to slow down — to trade the scroll for a paintbrush, even for a single evening.
Pick a tradition that speaks to you, clear a little space on your table, and let's make something beautiful together.
