I love lights and color. I put this wine bottle to perfect use as a colorful lantern by painting it. Lotus is my favourite flower and I wanted to paint the same on the lantern. I used acrylic paint and glass liner to make this.

Let Ideas Bloom

This is one of the tee shirt designs I made for Ice Boys Ent. Co. I drew the design on paper and redesigned it using Corel Draw.

Meow

This is another T Shirt design I drew on paper and redesigned on Corel Draw for the company I am interning at. I took inspiration from the cat Mittens, a character from the movie Bolt.

The Gyre eagle

The Gyre Eagle is a representation of how a human being's imagination and eagle like vision or insight, can swirl endlessly, like a rigmarole, and if paved the right path, how the mind turns into an endless mine of intelligence and knowledge that is forever replete. This, is my typical style of art, i.e detailed doodling.

This is my tribute to one of my favorite bands of all time, Queen. Here, I've taken the meaning of the song "Killer Queen" literally and given a comic like appearance to it. I used chalk pastels and marker pens for this drawing.

The Mermaid

The Mermaid was my first attempt at drawing a detailed doodle. This, is a figment of my imagination directly penned down. It wasn't thought out. It just came to me in a flash, like a vision after which I immediately drew a rough sketch and then made this. This also depicts my fear of the sea. The fear of suffocation, the fear of being denied freedom.

Here's a small poem describing the same:

She dived into the deep blue sea,To search for a new place she could be, She did not know where to go For beneath the blue, darkness followed.
