Perspective

A smile is not always a smile. It's your perspective, it depends on which side of the picture you are, is it a 6 or a 9?

It's true and we have to realise that at times what seems to be a smile can be very difficult for the person to put up. It may have a sad face hidden. Probably the person seeing the pic is not on the correct side. Flip to see the fun.

Think! That's what this page is about and at times look at the other side of the picture before your perspective is formed

Celestial Illusion

 

We depend on our senses to understand the difference between reality and illusion. But what we perceive as reality is not necessarily always real. We must understand that what we sense is at times customised by our brain according to our desire of reality. 

Tried my hand at such an illusion. Spot it and if you like it do follow me. 

The follow button is up there.

See O2

The above cartoon is funny. But where are we heading towards with all these forests being razed? Are we not only threatening the biodiversity, but also ensuring our own extinction? We should stop destroying our abode with our own hands before it's too late for any conservation efforts.

Monday

 

Mondays are the most hated day of the week. We all complain about Mondays. However, Mondays are not that bad. It's just like any other day. Rather Monday gives you a reason, to wait for next Friday. Monday teaches you patience and its upto us how we make the Monday count. We can feel sad dwelling in the thoughts of last Sunday well spent or we can start preparing for the next weekend to be superb.

I am not a life coach to let people know how to spend their days. I am just a small artist, who expresses his feelings through his art, but the choice is yours.

Lost... In my dreams

 

We all dream, but most of the times we forget what we dream. Some that we do remember, leaves us with questions like what did the dream mean? What is the dream trying to tell me? 

When we sleep our subconscious mind is most active. It stores details from our daily activities. When we sleep the subconscious mind creates projections of these stored information and thoughts that create dreams.

What these dreams mean I cannot tell you. Most of the dreams are wierd and leave us with wierd feelings. 

Above is an artist's illustration of dreams.

Alone

 

It happens with everyone at some point or the other that a person starts feeling that he is alone although he is amidst a crowd. Likewise in the picture above lines lay beside each other, but collectively they bring out a picture of a person who is alone. 

That's the irony of the picture, the lines in the picture individually don't have a meaning. But when they come together they turn into a picture. However, the picture is of a person once again who is alone.

Food for thought. Align the lines of your life according to the picture you want to portray.

Moharaja Tomare Selam (I salute you the king of kings)

 

This small caricature is a tribute to the writer, film maker, director, music director, script writer, lyricist, illustrator and calligrapher Sri Satyajit Ray, on his 100th birthday. Sri Satyajit Ray has always been an inspiration for creative people and our childhood would have been incomplete without reading his books and watching his movies. 

No matter how much I write about him will be less. Just want to quote a line from one of the songs from one of his movies "Moharaja Tomare Selam"

The cabin in the woods (The secret lair)

 

During the weeks that I was not able to post and I was busy with tackling life, I have realised that I have a cabin in the woods of my mind . 

It exists somewhere deep inside my mind. When I am tired, broke, and have no way out, I retreat to the warm abode of this place to contemplate, to regain the strength to come back and fight back. 

This is the pic of the cabin in the woods of my mind. Do you also have a secret lair like this?

And it is called "Life"

 

The above pic is a reflection of our lives. The past few months have been full of turmoil and I have not been able to concentrate much on my sketches. Out of this turmoil there was one though that emerged out

"Life is a quick sand, if not careful sucks you in.

Life clutches you in its tentacles, and the fall begins."

The Graveyard

 

"The graveyard is the richest place on earth, because it is here that you will find all the hopes and dreams that were never fulfilled, the books that were never written, the songs that were never sung, the inventions that were never shared, the cures that were never discovered, all because someone was too afraid to take that first step, keep with the problem, or determined to carry our their dream"- Les Brown

A Happy Valentine's Day

 

A very Happy Valentines day to everyone. If you have a valentine then have a very happy valentine's day with him/her, otherwise you can look at my funny cartoon, smile and still have a happy valentine's day.

People who have partner's are always in a dilemma, about what to gift their partner, and that at times lands us in funny situations. As the one in the illustration. Keep smiling and enjoy.

The "usual" love story

Back with some cartoons. 

February is the month of love, where we celebrate Valentine's Day. And that reminds me of the starting of the journey with my better half. 

... And we lived happily ever after...

Almost every story has a similar starting, nothing unique about it. But the one thing unique about it is, it's the one decision I have never regretted. 

Happy Valentine's Day.
