illustration Friday: Caution

If the weather was that wonderful, I'd throw caution to the wind too....

sometimes...just sometimes

insane deadlines

loony authority

jangled nerves

frustration

sigh

ink and white pen on green copier paper

Illustration Friday: Tango

i was so glad IF finally had a dance related topic this week. Unfortunately it was tango. i say unfortunately only because its one of the few dance forms i don't like. the women are too dehydrated for my liking and always seem stuck up. whats called 'passion' in tango looks to me like an attitude problem :P
but on the flip side, i do like the kicking and stomping and flailing about of limbs... :D

illustration friday : shaky

their relationship was off to a shaky start.

ball pen on newsprint.

wishing for the rain...

i found this scan of something i had made around two years ago. painted it while listening to the song 'rain falls' by lounge piranha.
its been unbeleivably hot here in ahmedabad. im waiting for it to start pouring here so i can sit in my balcony and watch the sabarmati flow by. and oh yeah, so i can burn some candles too.

Illustration Friday : Unfold

mimi loved reading murder mysteries.

she loved the way the stories would unfold and draw her in.

Illustration Friday: Fleeting

I had made this poster for the NID- Filmclub screening of the film "the Seven Year Itch" a while back.
Its funny how this image of marilyn monroe standing on the sbway grate with her skirt flying is one of the most iconic images of the 20th century, yet it appears in the film for only a fleeting moment!!
and therefore TA-DA!!!...this weeks illustration friday entry!!!
enjoy!
