UMBRELLA mag.

I had visited the Umbrella site, a free publication in the UK, by chance and wanted to illustrate for them. Fortunately, I had the privilege to do so despite my time-management skills, or the lack of it. The article spoke of the craze-d TV show Man vs Food, and the host's, Adam Richman, ginormous appetite that lures him into every American town to try the most famous dish or anything that would come across as a challenge.

Birthday Portrait


I've not been very good at portraiture, as I've mentioned previously in my posts, 
though it is something I love working on.
I make them look extremely different (read, ugly), 
but I don't necessarily mind it.

DO.


This was done for a conference on the rights to pedestrian and cycle friendly roads, bringing about current affairs of an urban Indian road, and the lapse in its design. 
Done for the Air Pollution Control unit, Centre for Science and Environment


These initially were posters which later on became Standee's, and were a joy to work on because it's a cause worth putting the effort. 
ALSO, my very first set of Adobe Illustrator artworks. 

A special thank you to Avantika Jalan for her brilliant feedback and Sargam Gupta for her immaculate typography skills!

GRIND LAKE Promo


A few days ago, my friend, Devashish Guruji surprised me with this amazing art piece he had worked masterfully on his BlackBerry mobile. I was most amused, and as an entertainer, I never like to let my audience down.

I also suggest you play this track whilst.




SO NOW I GIVE TO YOU



Work in progress ( W.I.P)

Dear Deboo,

This could possibly mark the beginning of many 'illustrative' wars. 

Cheers.

You may possibly need 3d glasses for this, and if it works, do leave a comment stating that it does :)

you bookMark!




Bookmarks for CSE (Centre for Science and Environment), that I had designed have finally come back from the printers [however, these are just test samples]. There are 5 different ideas in this set, each displaying an idea or a unit of the organisation [for example, air pollution, Water, potty  etc.]. I am going to tweak them a bit more just so they are absolutely perfect and have a 'likeable' quality about them.
BUT it's a complete joy to see your work ready [almost] to be adopted by the world.

Model Monst*rs

MODEL 1 # Madhu
MODEL 2 # Shagun
MODEL 3 # Ramola

I've not really had time for myself, and somehow I managed. I've been told that my characters are generally weird and diseased looking, and I actually take pride in that. Here's aiding my disease. 


ps : I don't mean to harm anybody's sentiments.
