Wednesday Drawing Sessions...

2010-12-20T21:32:00.000-08:00

Hi,

We just started with our Sketching Sessions on Wednesday and hopefully will continue to do so every Wednesday :D

What we basically started off in the first half was with theme based drawings where everyone thought of one word. Then we randomly asked three people to say the word they thought of. So, the words we got were 'KOHINOOR WONDERLAND CREATURE'. We then asked everyone to interpret these words the way they wanted and express it through drawings :)
Here are some of the works from last week's session :

Sagar

Diana

Ajay

Varun - This is part of the life study that we had in the second half :)

TWINS!

2010-07-18T23:18:00.000-07:00

Hi all! :)
Sorry for the looooooooooooooooooooong delay! :(

We are back with another poll.. very few entries this time :'( so many things kept things delayed But here they are:

Silsunny D'souza

Tom Angel and Tom Devil, the twins who stays in poor Tom's head. They do their best to keep him confused. He is so confused that picks up a pencil to eat his food and needs a fork to do his math & science. We all have these twins in our heads every time, its better to let Tom decide whether he should listen to Tom Angel or Tom Devil.

Karishma Mirashi

Yi Lyn Ong: Interwoven

'What is a twin but a mirror of one? Or is it something more that connects both together... '
(sketch and inked on paper, then put into photoshop for colours and textures)

Dilesh Lamsal: Black Mail

Born identical ...the difference in their appearance was later marked by their "KARMA"...one of them being Sadist in nature ...enjoys watching his brother in Panic mode ...and loves to hear him say "Dude!! u sure we ll be Ok"

Aravind Jayaraman

According to Wikipedia: The term originates from its use in computer science, after a computer is rebooted, nothing (except non-volatile storage, such as on a disk drive) of the computer's previous operating session has any bearing on its new session…

One of the reasons which could “reboot” one’s life could be marriage…where changes 90% of the activities, priorities & on whole “The Lifestyle”…

Its always good to reboot yourself to see the change in yourself,
Sometimes the smoke is more important which may be before or after the Fire.

Dreams are :

Limitless -- Ocean deep to sky high

Boundriless -- Hence, sky & sea both are merged, there is no definite

border in between.

Any form, some may have a definite form...Some may just be shapeless...

Any color, some warm, some cold -- Different shades used.

Some are simple, some are complex -- Different shapes used.

They may be calm & gentle or harsh & stormy. (Soft waves or the whirlpool)

Some reachable, some not -- the Hand holding one of the shapes

Eyes, symbol of visualising the dreams.

As her dream bag was on the rack

So there she goes
inviting Cathy her bff to join the hunt

Sibi Chakravarthi

The rise of the dead king

Sireesha Gadiraju

Three scarecrows who share a common passion, "Music", come together and form a band called 'Terrys'. When ever they are off their daily job of scaring the crows and other birds ,they come together and rock on!!!!

Ask yourself once, Did I, Did You, Did We lose Humanity in Us..??
The Humanity in humans is dead, running behind Money, Materialistic things and PROFESSIONAL FAME,
running behind attaining popularity in his work and so....

Love, Happiness and Trueness everywhere in everyone.

Standing on the door he destroyed
With a smashed Mrs Smith on the underside.

It's bad and a lot of money but he is happy.
