Treasure hunt

I have found these a few months ago when I was digging some childhood treasures!! Now I actually consider these as treasures because of the innocence I find in them.. most of them are done while I was in 1st, 2nd or 3rd Std. Each one has some story to tell me or some memory to connect with.. :)

A festival in my imagination, I really dont know how an elephant can roar like that..

That was the usual dinner scene at home.. my uncle, who stayed with our family for a very long time and my father. The kerosene lamp was a must, as the electric bulbs used to be like fireflies.

A school youth festival stage programme. :)

She used to be my favourite Aunty!! So, I had to draw her :)

Drawings that I dont have to tell much about..

This one made me laugh...:)

And one of my favourites!!!

This is a combined effort of mine and my sisters. Reminds me of a lot of fights between us to make a more beautiful house than each other. I am happy that we manged to make them in one spread with one road connect them :)

The last one. This is done by my sister. I couldn't resist putting it up because of the beauty of imagination in it!

Two windows

Two windows, in two different places and different days. One is of the apartment nearby my office. Not the window, the expression caught my eye. Another one is my kitchen window through which I see the white canvas shoes washed and kept for drying almost everyday and reminds me of the movie 'Children of Heaven'.

The girl next door

This one is dedicated to the girl next door, but also the girl who shares my house :). The girl who was my batch mate during my years in Ahmedabad, also a good friend. The girl who is always busy..but who find time to make me smile. This is she and her space.. Like her, there is sparkles, colours, lights, dreams.. and of course, the super powers!!

Some details..:)

Illustrations for children :)

Sharing glimpses of a recent illustration project with KSICL ( Kerala State Institute of Children's Literature). It took sometime for me to finish two books in bits and pieces because of the time after office was a bit tiring to finish it in one go. But, I had fun working on these :)

At work

Sketches done from my new workplace. Though the place I can walk around is less, there is always a space for sketching and that makes me happy:)

Acchan

Some random sketches of my father, who is always happy to be a model for me. These were done at home in a lazy evening also during a recent train journey with him.

After the break

I had to take a break from blogging for sometime..was getting busy with new job.. new people.. new place. Uploading these sketches for my friends who have been asking me for a new post in the blog and motivating me to do more. These were done during my stay in a PG for a short time. Will post more soon.. :)
