02Six reasons
What makes
a Glow Arts piece.
The things customers mention again and again in their reviews.
Paintings that glow in the dark
Our signature. A Glow Arts piece looks like a normal painting with the lights on, then a second image or effect appears when the room goes dark. It's the first thing visitors to our Banjara Hills gallery remember, and the reason many of them order.
Real artists, not filters
Every portrait is made by our artists: digitally hand-painted on canvas, painted in oil, or drawn in pencil and charcoal. Because a person makes it, we can fix a dark room, a busy background or a blurred face, and bring people from different photos into one picture.
Made for the moments that matter
Most of our work marks something important: a parents' anniversary, a 50th or 60th birthday, a wedding, a new home, or a loved one who has passed away. We've painted memorial portraits from the only photo a family had left.
Old photos, brought back
We restore faded, torn and stained prints, including photos from the 1980s and earlier, and print fresh copies. We work on a digital copy, so your original comes back exactly as it was.
On time and carefully packed
Tell us your date and we plan around it. Customers often mention receiving their piece before the promised day, packed and ready to give as a gift. We deliver across Hyderabad and Secunderabad and courier anywhere in India.
A gallery you can walk into
See finished work in person on Road No. 14, Banjara Hills, any day from 9:30 am to 9:00 pm. We'll switch the lights off so you can watch the glow pieces change.

04The people
A family
of artists.
Glow Arts is run by artists, not a print shop.
Customers often name the people they worked with, especially Ashok Raj, who guides many orders from the first photo to delivery. The studio is led by artist Amrutha Krishna Das, whose devotional and portrait work is part of the gallery collection.
When you order, you talk to the people who make your piece. Tell us who it's for and where it will hang, and we'll suggest the style, size and framing that suit it.

A few useful details
Honest answers.
Are you the cheapest option?
No, and we say so up front. Each piece is made individually by an artist, so it costs more than an instant print. We always confirm the price before we start, so there are no surprises.
How do I make sure my order arrives on time?
Tell us your date when you order. We'll confirm whether it's possible before we begin, and we'll tell you honestly if it isn't.
What if I can't get through on the phone?
Message us on WhatsApp with your photo and what you have in mind. It's the quickest way to reach the studio, and you'll have the details in writing.
Can I see the work before I order?
Yes. Visit the gallery in Banjara Hills, or ask us on WhatsApp for examples of the style you're considering.
Ready when you are.
