Water

You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water. " 
~ Rabindranath Tagore

Here's to love in all its forms. Inspired by flowers, colour, the moon and the sea.

ALSO - Happy Birthday Mr. Cyril Kiran! 

I hope you have a lovely day and a lovely year ahead, and I hope you have everything you wish for. 

Thank you for being such a lovely friend :) Always.

What a weekend - Went exploring with my best friend in the whole world, one of favourite favourite things to do :)

We saw and found the most beautiful things :)

Have a lovely day everyone!

Burst

Last week I wrote a post about imagination and making dreams come true.

This week I've finally realised that dreams and imagination are a result of initiation. Everything has moved in such an amazingly fast and lovely pace that I cant help but wonder where I started and began. I also can't help but think :

I have finally found a "A quote," that's beginning to reveal itself in most areas of my life, courtesy The Beatles :

"The love you take is equal to the love you make"

                                         

This has all coincided with the creation of "Illustration Much," an illustration studio of sorts started by four os us - Me and three of my closest friends from college.

We launched Illustration Much at Kitsch Mandi this weekend - It's a popular flea market in my lovely home city of Bangalore. The responses and the love we received was immense! And we're so happy to continue putting out more work in the future.










Please share the love :)

Imagination

This month has been so so wonderful!
I had the amazing opportunity to illustrate for the Kyoorius Design Yatra held at Goa last month!

Focusing on the theme "The Divide," focused on imagination, creativity and of course - 

Making dreams come true.

I love what I do, and my illustration was meant to potray just that.

How waking up every morning to a job you love is a blessing, and how one's heart can move in different rather difficult directions from time to time.

I left Goa inspired, a little sad (I almost considered moving to Goa), but so happy and grateful.

I'd like to thank Kyoorius and everyone involved!

Cant wait to see what's next!

Tall

This month I've said "Hello" to a whole new world.

Adveritising, long days and sleepless nights.

Creative dreams, lots of drawing and color 

(Of course)

"If you aren't in over your head, how do you know how tall you are?"

- T. S. Eliot

Secrets, flowers and wood

                                         
                                                 My tribute to fashion, glamour and all things creative.
                                                  Thought it was about time to do something different.
                                                  And because I adore seeing my work as a snapshot :

                         

            Have a creative day :)

Faded

Sometimes getting caught up in a regular life makes you forget the beauty of what you're doing and why you're doing it.Worrying about money and time is an every day thing occurrence in my life, and then I update my blog and I've realised that the beauty of what really matters has certainly faded away.

                             

                             

Must note, every day - The beauty of art and people.And maybe the beauty of things I don't like very much!

Share.Inspire.

Hitched

Just graduated college!

And the little guy up there is one of the results of my four years at The Symbiosis Institute of Design!

He's a part of a huge collection of characters :

"Circus People", an illustrative theme based font

Each alphabet is based on a character from the circus!

And there are numbers too!

And it's a book as well!!

(That I hope to get published someday)

It's wonderful time, Im extremely happy to be doing what I'm doing.Lucky as well :)

Happy May everyone!!

Vocal

Sometimes if it's louder it's better

Return

My interpretation of Lord Krishna

We all worship something or someone.And eventually,maybe,we all return to it.

In my opinion, Krishna's probably one of India's (Hinduism's) most charming Gods.

Who,by the way,came to restore Dharma to the earth in a time of great dharmic imbalance.

So Im almost done with my degree project and college,its all happening very fast.But in a good way,Im settling into doing some regular things - getting a job,working and doing what I love.Of course :)

This year's probably going to be quite different and Im looking forward to it.

And there are the other lovely things in life,the things around you..

                                                        .............................................

Intention

“Intention involves such a small fragment of our consciousness and of our mind and of our life.”

                                                                                                            - Jasper Johns

I've always looked at the word "Intention" as a lamp surrounding your heart.

Sometimes it turns off,and sometimes it on!

Happy March!

Capable

“If we did all the things we are capable of, we would literally astound ourselves.” 

                                                                                                                          - Thomas Edison

It's true,we're all capable of swimming in the ocean and flying to the clouds.

I've done lots of travelling this month,from Bombay..

To places much closer to home..

The year is just beginning :)
