postcard 2: library madness
If Baroda has one flaw, it's the lack of a good library. Which is why i broke into a spontaneous jig of joy and skipped around like a lunatic in my chennai library (stunning the other innocent and rather apprehensive customers).
The librarian didn't even blink though. He's gotten used to it.
*sigh. Books are delicious!
postcard 1: the heat was hot
Recently, i got the chance to spend a few days in my hometown, Chennai.
Chennai is hot, humid, eternally muggy and my favourite city in the world! However, after my family moved away, opportunities to visit have become precious and far between. :(
While i was there this time, i decided to document my trip by creating, at the end of each day, a postcard of the event that stuck out most in my mind.
I am now left with 10 postcards summing up my trip (that i shall now put up in order received).
The heat in Chennai was very hot. :I

cookies are meant for seeing
After the long spell of collecting cobwebs that my blog has been forced to endure i've decided to start with something sweet. And edible.
I'd been doodling and eating an awful lot lately so i struck inspiration one day and decided to combine the two into one pastime.
The following (with generous help from my mum in the baking process) is what resulted.
The type cookies are with the help of typogeek Kalapi (by 'help of' i mean i started making a few letters, gave up half way and let him convert the wrecks into pretty type)
After several hours of applying and eating colourful icing though i couldnt look at my finished cookies in the eye let alone eat them so they were duly munched up by my brother. :(

This is a sneak peek of the book i made for my diploma project. It's a peek because i dont have the time to upload more right now :( I'm preparing for my final jury coming in two days.
Wish me luck!Friday 15 October 2010
work work work
I've been so busy with my diploma project, i havn't had time to do anything else in what seems like forever! It's either draw draw draw, paint paint paint or stare stare stare at the computer.
Last time i was on the comp i switched on an app that tracks my cursor movement. This is what my cursor's escapades looked like after a few hours.
I wait for the time when i can spend my time sleeping instead of all this working.

au revior
My brother has left for Paris for his studies.
Oddly enough i think i miss him :(
One of our last moments together in Bangalore was spent trying to get a decent picture of the two of us.
The picture didn't turn out so decent so i just decided to draw us instead... :l

abode illustrator
It really does feel like we live in Illustrator the amount of time we spend on it!
My friend cracked this joke in the course of a conversation and i found it quite funny so i decided to draw it..

immovable
sticks and stones may break my bones,
but words are what condemn me.
Why are people's perceptions so immovable?
Why are people's perceptions so immovable?
Once again IF has offered me a topic that relates to my project!
I am currently doing a project on linguistic conflict and its relation to identity. This illustration is part of that as well.
I would be BEYOND grateful if you could take one minute to give me your interpretation of this image. Feel free to interpret it any way you want.!
Thank you so much!!

rakshabandhan
Today is rakshabandhan and im supposed to tie a rakhi for my brother. Unfortunately he's too far away and frankly i had forgotten until he sent me a hate-sms saying i suck.
Thus, in order to prove my love for him, i bought a rakhi and made this.
Since i can't send him one, he can print this, cut out the rakhi and, uh.. stick it on his arm? :l
:) Take a look at the packaging for the rakhi. It's quite interesting.
the air was thick with words
I need a favour from everyone checking this post. I am currently doing a project on linguistic conflict and its relation to identity. This illustration is part of that (but it also seemed to fit the theme to me).
I need people to give me their interpretation of this image so if you could take a minute to tell me what you see in this i would be really grateful. You can be as detailed as you want.
