Freshness

Kindly click on the image for a bigger view

This Summer has been a very dried one in Bangalore with almost no rain for months and unusually high temperature, specially in areas where big trees are less. Fortunately it has been raining in few days gaps now for sometime and hopefully the monsoon will will also arrive soon. The city got heavy rain last night for few hours. However the morning started with bright sunshine with cooler and pleasant temperature. The plants are shining with fresh leaves nowadays after months of rainless season. Nature is beautiful and pleasing. Hopefully this plant will grow big in few years and give relief with shade to passerby in sunny days of hot summer.

Another Three wheeler

Another quick sketch of this popular mode of short traveling in India. This is somewhat a newer version [model] of this timeless three wheel vehicle though I still like the look of the older rustic ones which are more classic.

Inspirational sketch

"there are inspirations for art everywhere all the time. it's up to us how we respond to these inspirations, by contemplating and expressing in our own ways."

while traveling yesterday morning, i noticed this person with a selling cart under the beautiful morning light. it was a glimpse of only few seconds from a distance as i was riding and had to bring my focus back on road. however the quick glimpse was good as i could grab only the essence of it rather than focusing any details. after coming back home i did a very quick, rough sketch trying to put the vague image on paper. satisfied with what i got, i did another bigger sketch with added elements to it.
