illustration Friday: Poise


At finishing school, they taught me to stay poised,no matter what fears lurk around corners, no matter what grabled words form the sky around me, no matter how sad my eyes may seem.

because i love summer afternoons
because i love naps and day dreaming
because i love the red floors and blue walls of my ajji's house
because i love flowers in my hair

Illustration Friday: Legendary



a certain god was legendary for being so dark, that people would rather paint him blue.
for being a delightful flautist
for loving all things beautiful.

sometimes i wish i could be like that, while still being a woman.

acrylic, pencil colour, pen and smudges of photoshop.

Illustration Friday : Breezy


breezy sunsets at the beach.
i never wanted to leave.
Ma, Amma and sister would yell their lungs off trying to get me to come home.
i could never stop looking at the sun setting.
