Srinivasa Paintings

Our place, Srinivasa Paintings, is situated right at the Benniganahalli Gordhanwadi Tekra Cross Road. We are directly opposite the TTK Factory, which is a good spot because everyone knows where that is. The traffic at the crossroad can get pretty heavy in the mornings and evenings. We have been operating from here for some time, dealing with all sorts of paint jobs. It is a lot of manual labor, and we spend plenty of time on ladders or prepping walls. Our crew is small, but we have worked together long enough that we don't need to say much to get the job done. The shop itself serves as our home base where we keep the ladders, drop cloths, and leftover cans. Sometimes the smell of thinner is quite strong, but you get used to it after a few years. We don't have a website or anything like that. Word of mouth is how we get most of our work in the neighborhood. We show up, do the painting, and move on to the next one. Sometimes the weather doesn't cooperate, especially during the rains, and we have to wait it out. It is a practical way to earn a living. We see the factory workers coming and going every shift change. It is a constant rhythm to the day. We just keep doing our thing, one wall at a time, until the day is over and we can pack up.
