Sunil Painter

Sunil Painter is my small business based in Amritsar. I’ve been living and working in this city for a long time. My place is located in Chhota Haripura, tucked away behind the Tabovan Gurudwara. It’s a fairly quiet neighborhood compared to the main markets. I keep all my supplies like brushes, rollers, and paint cans there. My day usually starts early when I load up my gear and head out to a job site. I do mostly house painting and some commercial work when it comes up. It is honest work but it can be very tiring. You spend a lot of time on your feet and reaching up high to get those corners. My clothes usually have a few spots of paint on them by the end of the shift. I don't have a big team or a fancy office with a secretary. It is just me and the work. People in the area know me because I’ve been around for so many years. I just show up, do the prep work like scraping and sanding, and then get the color on the walls. Sometimes the weather doesn't help and things take longer to dry than I want. I don’t make a big deal out of it, I just wait and finish it when it’s ready. It’s a simple way to make a living and it keeps me busy enough.
