Good, Better, Best !

Hi all really didnt have much to update.. or rather havent thought of what to update.. so posting my current wallpaper.. I was playing with some discarded gouache painting in greens & yellows & some typo. Have been surrounded with fresh greens due to fantastic monsoon hence the palette :)
Instead of waiting to do a great piece for update posting one I have ... As they say
" A good thing for today is better than the best thing for tomorrow "
So posting whatever I have..

Enjoy !

A rarity

Hi all,
Was listening to Beautiful song 'Piya tora kaisa abhimaan' by Shubha mudgal ( also another super version by Hariharan ) from movie Raincoat, on a rainy evening and sketched this from memory ! & threw in some color splashes. I do very less of memory character/figure sketching hence called this post a RARITY !
I thoroughly enjoyed while the water was flowing ... outside the window and on my canvas as well. I hope you do too !
Enjoy the rains !

Done in 60 seconds !

Hi all,
a post after long.. something which goes well with the title "DONE IN 60 SECONDS". I downloaded some interesting palettes from Kuler . Kept a stopwatch, played some nice music along and did those .. Best way to beat the mental blocks away ! Simply liberates my soul !

Cheers & Enjoy !

Fathers Day

Hi all,
Found this sweet little poem for a fathers day on Poemsforfree. Whoevers written it is really lovely ! So added that to a sketch I had done some time ago. For all the joys that lovely kids give us !
Cheers all fathers !

Finally !

Finally I have my own web site! A place where I let my work SAY SOMETHING!
I tried to design on the philosophy of 'Minimalism' .. which I tend to love , also being one of the reason I love Apple Inc. in every & all its forms for its design !
Ive just posted my works for now Ill be updating project wise details & other little things pretty soon. So here the link :

All strings detached !

Some of my musings, more of "ANGRY abstracts" ... also has a quote I read in a ZEN book by Osho .. its about how lighter & unburdened your mind must be to fly on a higher plane.. I love that thought and totally agree that the bindings & attachments we have in some way burden us in more ways than one.
Went on spontaneously & vigorously, hence these images ..
enjoy !

Keep studying 'n Keep Sketching !

Hi .. posting a study sketch for a very interestingly lit corner .. worth calling a COZY corner for the inviting feeling ! did this from a photograph in a mag (about 20 mins) .. they are great sources for sketching .. be it places, lighting, people, fashion, fabrics etc..
Cheers all !

Bak to digital concepts !

Hi posing some digital doodles on a concept Ive been onto for some time now .. these are just explorations of temples in concept art ( seen lot of gothic structures & cathedrals ) .. hence just brushing up something on traditional Indian structures .. will be posting lot more these lines soon ...
Cheers!

Darkness & fireflies (part2) !

Hi all ,
Posting artworks done for a book of poems " KAALOKH KAAJVE" by my aunt Sau.Jayashree pathak. Also you can savour the short poems. This was the reason for earlier post as we had driven down to Nasik for the launch of the book. I was glad to get an opportunity to display some of the artworks there. More of sketches with inks & washes is what I did.. just to keep the expressive feel intact & supplement the lovely poems!
hope you like them !
Cheers :)

Travelogue

Hi ..these are impressions of an amazing Natures Lasers Show we(me + 5) experienced while driving on highway from Nasik to Pune on sunday evening. It was a tedious and slow drive with very less visibility & average road laced with streaks of bright lights !
One of the most spectacular lightnings ive seen that lasted for almost 2 hrs surprisingly without much thunder & heavy rains !
I Had to let it out visually hence this post ..
Cheers !
