These are the illustration laid out with the article. (For your information, the article isn't really about a toaster craze. It's an interesting article about a new generation of nature writers and about mankind in general moving away from nature)

ooooooooo! toasterrr!!!
pressure
yea. ok. i know. I haven't posted for AGES. The workload in college has been enoRmous of late because i decided to be flighty and shift from course to course. It's an oddly bitter sweet feeling; being overloaded with work you like. Since i took such a long break i'll upload a few thing at a go now. I'll start off with an image of how i've been feeling (somewhat) this last week.

Tamil Pride :)
Apparently this is a really old video but i just saw it today and i simply could NOT stop laughing. If you're tamil and you haven't seen this yet, watch it NOW.

Blackboard
I've finally decided to put up some of my internship work. Last summer i worked with a publishing house called Tulika and helped conceptualise and subsequently illustrate a book for them. It's called blackboard and is now available in book stores in god-only-knows-how-many languages. (Please buy a copy!) These are 6 of 18 pages. To see the rest you can pick up a copy!! (or wait until i post them up out of lack of anything else to post)
You can buy the book here.

Gah.
I don't feel like working. I'm tired of college. All i feel like doing is running back home, which is now, unfortunately, in Baroda. Unfortunately, because it's Chennai i want to run to.(Don't mistake me Baroda's a beautiful place. I just prefer Chennai. You can't help but be partial to the place you've spent 13 yrs of your life.) Right now i wish i were one of these damn birds. Flying around in the sunset instead of staring guiltily at my computer screen updating my blog instead of working. :(
The picture was, ironically, taken in Baroda during a bird-watching jaunt with my mother.

Pavitra pin-up
I seem to have monsters on my mind for some reason. Pavitra here has a pin on the back of her head. Gruesome though that is, it makes her handy to attach onto my bag. :)
Admittedly these aren't the best pictures in the world. It's too late at night to take good ones, so i'll leave them for now and replace them soon hopefully. :l

Yakkity yak
lights will guide you home
Feels like i haven't put anything up on my blog for ages!
The impossible has happened. Not only have i started this damn blog, i've also gotten addicted to it. :(
Various possibilities for illustrations have been making jelabi patterns in my head for some time now but i simply haven't had the time to draw anything. However out of desperation to put something or the other up, here are some photos i took recently for a photo essay assignment in college.
I travelled to the city, alone, in the middle of the night to take these. To put it mildly it was a pretty eventful night. Me, my tripod and camera almost got run over, blown away, picked up, molested and arrested.
:) Needless to say, i had loads of fun!

all-in-one
things to do with a phone torch...
hawt
summer has decided to make its presence felt in bangalore... it's HOT.
i find myself whiling away time thinking of all things refreshing.. so much so that i dug out this old photo of mine and made it my wallpaper.
i keep telling myself that soft drinks are bad for health. i usually manage to aviod them for large periods of time and then succumb to a coke.
who cares about pesticides anyway? :(

sand and tanned
A little more than a year ago i went to the andamans as part of college. We're still not sure what they wanted us to get out of it. As a matter of fact, i don't thing they do either...
We went to Port Blair, Wandoor and Havelock. It was absolutely-mind-blowlingly beautiful from the mangroves to the forests to the beaches to the underwater corals and sealife to the breathtaking sky at night. We spent ridiculous amounts of time lazing in the sea. A year later and most of us still have a circular tan on our back courtesy the sun and the swimsuits.
*sigh... I still dream about it sometimes.
