2009-12-17T18:35:00.001-05:00

on depression...

2008-09-23T23:02:00.002-04:00

these holes represents holes in her memory lost in depression. stuck with past happily but her present is pulling her down in dark. just an expression!

simply a landscape!

gossip-aftereffects

2008-08-14T12:22:00.003-04:00

article was on how gossip - lies - madeupstories against her was affecting her-a teenager's life. how internet has become a medium for gossips. these are mouths flying from ol over the state n gossiping abt her..

i feel something is missing still to add more effect to this illustration but however i like my concept of 'mouths with wings'.. anh..its copyrighted by me..beware.. not to use it.

i will definitely play with it more.

face-series

2008-08-12T13:37:00.005-04:00

i had fun doing these.. esp i tried these faces on mini canvases and also

they my first attempt using acrylics. i am highly inspired by my class mate Theoni. she uses them really well. and definitely also by my professor Scot Bakal. i like the way he works with acrylics also.

the best would be if i try doing them more.. i tnevah os raf, rrrrg!

i was doodling away on my traveling sketchbook(shared by 3 of us) while i was thinking on memory article. this just took my whole attention. few days later when i looked back at it, i decided add it to my personal sketchbook.

2008-04-17T12:33:00.004-04:00

i sketched this drawing when i was returning to firenze santa maria novella from rome. landscape is from what i could see through my train window. tree is from fiseole (hour an half from florence) . and i dont where the sheep idea came from. must have seen them somewhere. hehe....

its ol beautiful there like here, of course. even the train ride(aa.. i like eurostar!) its very dreamy and filmy bollywood style. hehe.. but then, it was real to me.

i tndid ekil eht roloc rof eht peehs i desu....lliw oder it! ...rrrg

what does ur brain think abt this?

2008-04-14T16:09:00.004-04:00

this was the initial idea of the time assignment.

well, i also worked on hourglass piece for time again and also started with the new one. will upload the hourglass final soon.

a quick sketch

2008-03-14T11:10:00.004-04:00

this may not be good enough since i was only experimenting.. but this style or way of doing.. can produce

good potraits/caricatures.

2008-03-04T00:18:00.001-05:00

am still gonna try a another version of it.
does it need a background(bg) color?

"tancredi"

2008-03-03T13:34:00.001-05:00

book cover illustration!

everyone liked the first piece here among the three options i showed to them.
ofcourse, corrections to be made.

story: about conjoined twins. one good n one evil. becoz of the evil one, good one suffers n is killed by the bad one.

here, i shown conjoined flowers(lotus lily(sacred flowers).. symbolically) bad one is contaminating or rather spreading its poison on to the good and shining one. i tried to show it with the use of colors. i have to create a lil distance between the two flowers and add a lil denser color on the right(bad) flower. i think thatz abt it.

any comments?

"no time"

2008-02-19T23:40:00.001-05:00

>an illustration for people who are constantly working and who have absolutely no 'time' for themselves, for their family, for vacation..stuff like that.

i was really worried with this initially.

u know, when u know how it should look.. what all things u would use

as in textures n stuff to make it look better..

in short, i mean, u have olready imagined the final artwork in ur head.. and u are not able to do so in reality. thatz frustrating!

i was ol very excited when i began.. halfway down the lane.. i was like its a disaster..its not what i had imagined.. was running out of time.. grrr

then i just left it.. took like 10 min break..ate m&ms' watched something on t.v. and quitely returned to my drawing table.. and tada..

yeah, i know.. i still have few changes to make.

2008-02-14T15:34:00.000-05:00

i had fun doing this assignment.

i still got to finish..

2008-02-14T00:55:00.000-05:00

my first color potrait that too with the medium that i never used before for a potrait. oils. its still incomplete.

i like to do black n white potraits and i have done few using charcoal.

i still got to scan the 2-3 left ones.

oops! look what i did!

i love his subway sketches.

during the seminar we had today...

tancredi

2008-02-04T14:38:00.000-05:00

yeah my last sem started....n we recieved our first assignment on our very first day. its very interesting story of conjoined twins- (roman had decribed it in a very funny way.) we have to do its illustration. twins of two different personalities..good n one bad. but yaa... am not able to think out of the box. i generally get visuals as soon as i read the brief but.. this time not very interesting inspite the story being very unique. today is the deadline for the ideas.. am sure am gonna fail this deadline. i mean i am getting something(visuals) in my mind hard to express. not happy.... am thinking!

2008-01-15T17:57:00.000-05:00

my italy trip... i told u earlier, it was all for this style.

hehe, there were many such lifestyles i noticed and observed and tried to bring them on paper.

hosh and the posh city

2008-01-15T17:51:00.000-05:00

i have really grown to love this one as much that now i feel whether is saleable or not!

this is first of many 5by7inch paintings of my italy trip. and this style was developed there or rather i should say it all happened enlightenly.

independence!

2008-01-15T17:45:00.000-05:00

the assignment was my declaration of independence! have nothing much to say abt this accept that the effect of watercolor on the paper is great... very different.

standing tall

2008-01-15T17:42:00.000-05:00

this was appreciated by two of my proffessors, but i am never confident.

what ya think?

2008-01-15T17:41:00.000-05:00

it was ok, fun but a tiring vacation. clicked lot of photos inbetween

i need a break!

'dilemma'

2007-11-21T11:07:00.000-05:00

on the top is my color comp. and it obvious that artwork below is final product.

i loved it. had fun experimenting and i was really bold playing with it.

the best part is it conveyed the message: the dilemma that a ghetto cop faces between his risky occupation and the well being of his family. here's my another effort of putting my style into use after comunication project.

ma yppah htiw eht emoc-tuo!

2007-11-06T08:30:00.001-05:00

HOPE IS FULL OF DESIRES

i love that name.

2007-10-23T08:41:00.001-04:00

am not exactly happy the way 'g' turned out.. but it still manages to be the part of the family.

siht si gnoma wef sgniht taht i ekil ot od revo n revo niaga!

landscape

2007-10-10T22:07:00.000-04:00

i completed this in like an hour and half. i was pretty amazed myself then. my proffessor liked it too. the secret is..i was intending to go greener and like have a forest feel.. but then in process i changed my mind. that was a good move i suppose.this was the first time i was able to show a distance decent enough in my landscape. i mean i like that horizontal light lines on the middle right side of the painting.

i miss doing landscape..s. back in school we would not get over it.. now that i stopped doing nemore of it.. i miss it.

one of the best work i did in year of 99

2007-10-05T20:20:00.000-04:00

and i still love it. i had put in so much effort and interest in the tube.. that till the time i reached the paste.. i equally sucked. its wonderfully rendered.. it seems that the tube is actually lying on that sheet of paper if u see the origional.. of course its lacking shadow. those lines were straight with brush without using support of ne kinds.

its my personal opinion.. i tihs evol siht eceip!

ufo? ufo or what?

2007-10-03T02:40:00.000-04:00

.....eheheh

2007-10-01T00:05:00.000-04:00

i had fun exggerating those faces.

2007-09-27T09:12:00.000-04:00

this is like on the spot sketching, first field trips of many to come.

some cultural show was held in battery park. beats, these guys played with their interesting drums was just awesome.. was busy listenting then sketching. it was really a hard job to draw and capture movements as they you to finish off soon.

2007-09-23T03:00:00.000-04:00

was trying to load this up as my banner for this blog.. but not satisfying enough

what is she thinking?

2007-09-22T21:30:00.000-04:00

could have improved it...but ahh.. left it just like that. i didnt like the grass esp..

2007-09-22T19:09:00.000-04:00

btw, what do u people think abt my photograph?(irony..hardly ne one visited my blog yet and am asking but just in case if someone is interested) horizon.. hehehe couldnt a better name than this.. i havent re-touched in the ne photoshop like softwares or in photoshop itself. i took this on last thanksgiving break. we made a trip to north carolina. we were six of us..good team and stopped somewhere for a beautiful view. its was early evening time, cold weather..no bright good light.
and then my eyes caught that shot, found it interesting and click! so here it is..

sti tneced, t'nsi ti ? ......etirlo ahctog.

i had nothin to do and then...

2007-09-20T23:43:00.000-04:00

.. i doodled. dont mind, i often visit my past. and i generally dont let go my stuffs easily. so this is still hanging around with me.

i like the two left most faces.. they are facing eachother. like the way i did their nose.

still my favourite style

2007-09-20T23:35:00.000-04:00

i used a waterproof ink. thatz what i had at a reachable distance. yeah, it shines a lot but still its been my fav sketch.

i think i made a good use of the red sheet of paper i had.

for learning purposes..

2007-09-19T23:39:00.000-04:00

its a sketch from a sketch.. i don't know who did the origional.

i found it in some book in my college library i went in india.

that time i was trying on sketching different smiles. one left out of 20 sketches i did. rest i think they are ol trashed. neways..

dont think i did this on my own.. this was a homework. hehe.

2007-09-19T23:29:00.000-04:00

with that communication assignment am not done yet. have some improvements to make. if time permits.. that means if i am able to save time from the time i spent talking, orkuting and tv..i would re-do it in posters colors with rough textures. that might make a good artwork.. i can imagine it.
olrite lets face it...ti t'nia annog neppah. ....rrrg

2007-09-18T16:58:00.000-04:00

communication. was struggling for a way to excute the idea. this is the first attempt and probably the final one.

humm communication. yeah, thinking..am thinking

2007-09-15T23:06:00.000-04:00

monoprint is or can be a really good medium for an impression to last long on viewers. very good way to express urself, esp for fineartists and well illustrators can use it for its advantages too. well i couldn't explore more... i had to leave for india before the class could end. neways.. would definately try my hand at it again. untill then, i have 1 or 2 monoprints that i would like to you people to see. will upload them soon. this is one out of three monoprints i created. not bad for the first try.. i like it.

yeah yeah.. everything has a room for improvements. am not saying its the best.

2007-09-13T22:24:00.000-04:00

few more strokes.

2007-09-13T22:01:00.000-04:00

oh i like this stuff that i did. well initially first few strokes were just random..then in another second it turned out to be what it is now. its not my latest sketch though.
