The Story Behind PemaSiddhi
The Founder
Palak Rashma Sharma has been a lifelong lover of art — painting, musical instruments, classical singing, languages, and visual culture. As a dedicated artist she has started this venture to share her art in the form of different products that can reach and be useful to anyone.
Background
As a child of the Indian Army, her core aim has always been to serve the country. Guided by this purpose, she chose to study economics, and at the age of 21, she was alongside a panel of senior revered Vajrayana Buddhist monks as a speaker, presenting her research on Buddhist economics at the Centre for Bhutan Studies and the Gross National Happiness Index.
It was after this connection with Bhutan that she and her parents started a non-profit called Happy Triangle Foundation, inspired by Bhutan's happiness index.
It was during the same trip to Bhutan that the Guru Rinpoche mantra — Om Ah Hung Vajra Guru Pema Siddhi Hum — connected and stayed with her deeply.
The Journey
Many years into working on the non-profit, during the COVID period, when her nonprofit's on-ground classes had to stop, the team transformed their learning material into magazines. Creating these magazines revealed something powerful to her: the women of Indian history deserved stronger, richer, and more vibrant artistic representation. She began painting them.
Over the next five years, through constant dialogue with children, the discipline of producing each magazine edition, and the act of painting every woman by hand, she learned more technique, lighting, contrast, precision, and patience.
By 2025, the magazines continued — but the paintings had grown so many that there wasn't enough space to store them. What never diminished was the desire to share them.
Instead of letting the artwork remain confined to individual canvases, she imagined something larger: a way for art to live in everyday spaces and everyday hands. That vision became PemaSiddhi.
The Creation
Founded in August 2025, PemaSiddhi is an art product company that creates a space where hand-painted artwork inspired by Indian and Asian traditions can reach every home.
Through beautifully crafted premium stationery and art products, the brand allows people to carry, use, and live with art in their daily lives.
At its heart, PemaSiddhi is also a purpose-driven initiative. The brand provides educational support to women and children who need it most through the Happy Triangle Foundation.
When someone buys a PemaSiddhi product, they are not only bringing art into their life — they are also helping make someone else's life brighter, fuller, and more beautiful.
Today, her artwork lives on as thoughtfully crafted diaries and products, ready to be part of everyday stories — one page, one hand, and one home at a time.
