Ink Beyond Words

A quiet space to wander through lines, textures, and untold visuals — the pieces that don’t always make it to the pages, but live closest to the heart.

Some stories aren’t written - they’re illustrated

Where Lines Begin

Not every story needs a canvas. Some begin as loose strokes, others as quiet forms. This is where they gather — unframed, unfinished, or simply free to unfold. Between color and quiet, lines and light, these pieces live outside the frame — still brimming with meaning, still becoming. Welcome to the quiet in-between.

Line & Light

Where the first strokes begin.

These are the gentle beginnings — the quiet lines drawn in the margins, where thought meets instinct. From loose pencil sketches to early visual concepts, each piece here holds the essence of an idea just beginning to take shape. They may not be finished, but they are full of light and intent.

Ink & Emotion

When lines carry more than shape.

A peek into Aruni’s visual world — from ink-dusted sketchbooks to digital doodles and mixed-media experiments. These illustrated stories are where imagination meets imperfection, giving life to lines, colours, and unpolished beauty that speak louder than words.

Behind the Ink

The art of not being done.

Not every piece is made for completion. Some are pauses in the process, open-ended experiments, or evolving expressions. This section holds the raw and unfinished — a celebration of the work-in-progress.

Art of the
Month

"Every month, one illustration takes center stage — a piece chosen for its emotion, technique, or the story it quietly tells. From delicate sketches to vivid scenes, this feature celebrates the evolving narrative of visual expression, inviting you to pause, reflect, and connect through art."

The Sketchbook

The House of Wonders

Tucked beneath a leafy canopy, this mushroom house blooms with quiet magic. A doorway to daydreams, it’s a place where imagination lives, stories begin, and tiny wonders wait behind every curve and color."

Coco

The Coffee Cup. A warm swirl of comfort captured in a cup — Coco Cup is where steam meets stories. Gentle tones and soft lines brew the feeling of slow mornings, whispered thoughts, and sips of calm between the rush

The Tiny Bakery

The cinnamon buns are warm, the cocoa is ready, and our little friends are waiting for their orders. Hums with the scent of cinnamon and stories with golden buns rising in warmth and joy sprinkled like sugar, it’s a cozy nook.

One leaf One story

At the heart of Stories by Aruni is a tree—not just a logo, but a quiet symbol of imagination, comfort, and handmade storytelling. For me, it represents the peaceful feeling of sitting under a tree with a sketchpad or a book.
