HOT SHO(o)TS

Hi friends
another post pretty soon.. went on trip ( mental & physical ) imagining complex & funny poses photographers take to take their best shot.. A red pen & a sketchpad can be so good a companion while traveling ! had to compile them with some thoughts that evoked ..
Hope you enjoy the Pot shots :P !

India authentic !

A long pending post.. sharing an illustration I did for O&M, Mumbai for their website http://www.beidiotsafe.com . This is a compilation I made of those individual char illustrations it was used for an interesting online flash based app. Cheers & gear up for the years ending !

Wash away !

Hi
have been listening to some p songs off late..sketching along.. this one was called " WASH AWAY " by joe purdy.. simple & easy lyrics with nice guitar. Had heard this song as an OST of series LOST ( what a lovely one that was ), so sketched from one of his photos there as I savoured the song & lyrics. hope you do too!
Cheers

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 !
