The restless spirit of an entrepreneur always finds a way to express itself. Ravindra Gupta, the founder of SKYHawk™ Arts, discovered this truth firsthand. After five years in the Insurance, IT, and Education sectors, he felt his entrepreneurial spirit was unfulfilled and yearned for something more meaningful.
During this phase, while clearing out his storage space to make room for his own office, Ravindra stumbled upon his childhood hobby of painting. This discovery led him back to his sketchbooks, sparking a creative revival. Eager to do more, he went to purchase art supplies but was stunned by the exorbitant prices.
Recognizing the need for a balance between price and value in the art supply market, Ravindra, at 25, took a bold step into trading painting canvases using his own capital.
In 2016, SKYHawk™ was born, marking the beginning of Ravindra’s venture. The brand secured its registered trademark, and by 2018, Maverick Business Solutions, a modest production unit with three dedicated workers, came into existence under Ravindra’s guidance. Thus, SKYHawk™ Arts was born not just from a desire for something different but from a commitment to making quality art materials accessible to all.
