IF: Winter

I miss white winters sometimes after making the move from northern New Hampshire to northern California... there is something poetically beautiful about white winters and a white Christmas.... and for me it's surely a novelty being used to southern hemisphere Christmas days spent by the beaches of Australia!

Illustrator Profile

I am now featured on IllustrationMundo and might soon be featured on Nisha John's blog about artists of Indian origin... Hoping to raise the profile and shamelessly self-promote!!!!

IF: Mail

Around this time of year, family takes the spotlight... so for my mum's upcoming birthday, I made a card out of leaves from the nearby park which I will pop in the mail.... It's amazing to think that it will fly all the way to Australia.... wish I could mail myself!!!

On it goes...

I'm as proud as any mum would be. My son and I just did an 8 week art class for toddlers.... He had a blast and here are some pics of his work (assisted by mum!)....

Above: Ceramic Book-end with double-decker bus, and cars coming out of a tunnel.... all his favourite things! Below: Acrylic on canvas swirls and handprints...

Sketchbook Project.... Phenomenon (IF)

Hopefully, this project will soon turn into a phenomenon! I'm making serious progress on my 'story' - "Kavya's Magic Blanket Ride" and sketches. Come in, take a load off... The last one and most of them will still get worked over some more... hope you like it!

IF: Sneaky

She is sneaking around an old crypt..... Its a sample sketch from my Sketchbok Project entry... It's on it's way to completion, and I'm dying to see it finished... so I hope I don't lose this momentum. Only 15 more sketches to go!

The 2011 Sketchbook Project - Update

Here's an update on my progress for my Sketchbook Project entry.... I've been late to get going, but now I'm happy to say I'm on a roll! It's a story about a little girl who travels to many places in the world in her magic blanket, but finds that being home with her mother is what she likes best in the end!!
