Illustration Friday: 'Chicken'



Does it show that ballet has been the only thing on my mind over the last week? :) This is what happens when you get blown away by Black Swan AND Tchaikovsky's music all at the same time! I'm currently obsessing over both, so what better way to illustrate 'Chicken' than a ballet theme :) If these girls were to prance on stage to Swan Lake, it would have to be called 'Hen Pond'. He he, bad joke. Enjoy the 'fowl' play :)

P.S. Drawing those skirts was the best fun I've ever had! :)

Illustration Friday: 'Deja Vu'



'Hey, didn't I just push you off the page?'

Deja vu...what goes around comes around :)

May the force be with you



My third portrait for The Hindu's Open Page! 'Big three' cheer :) This one was for a piece on scientist Satyendranath Bose, after whom those little 'force-carriers,' Bosons, are named :)

Illustration Friday: 'Resolutions'



This is a more a life's resolution than a year's one (since a big pay-check isn't going to happen anytime soon!), nevertheless...I'm hoping to go to Cinque Terre someday! I mean, just look at it. A group of five villages clustered on a cliff on the Italian coast. What's not to lust after? It's unreal. I heard about the place last month and have been obsessing over it ever since. Nothing like a crazily whimsical place to fuel the wanderlust! More travelling on the cards this year :)

And here's marking my foray into Illustration Friday!! Every Friday a word-prompt goes up, and you get a week to illustrate it. Fun fun fun :) One of the big resolutions was to draw more this year and make the transition into full-time art, so this is step number one. Fingers crossed! :)
