Quick Sketch – 15th July, 2010

" When Mr. Many-Heads-One-Body met Mr. One-Head-Many-Hands-And-Legs ... both were equally shocked!!! " - Drawn with permanent markers straight on paper without any pencil lines
“Singaara Chennai”
It means “Beautiful Chennai”.
It has now been almost 12 years since I left Chennai. After staying in Chennai for almost 30 years and spending all my childhood there, I miss the place dearly. Every once in a while, there is something or the other that comes up that takes my thoughts back to Chennai. I miss the people, I miss the culture. I miss Marina and Beasant Nagar Beach, I miss Saravana Bhavan… I don’t miss the sweat though , I get enough of that in Mumbai 
I miss the swings in the verandahs, the smell of filter coffee early in the morning, the Hindu newspaper…
Here’s one for the typical “Chennai Mama” (the next door uncle)
He’s seems to have liked the coffee his wife made for him, and he’s making sure his wife knows!

Quick Sketches – 11th May, 2010
Posted by phani in Illustration on May 11th, 2010
Here are a couple of quick sketches I drew (doodled, in fact!) with the Pelikano Junior pen straight into my sketchpad. I’m beginning to enjoy the process of drawing straight onto paper with a pen. It is a very spontaneous process, and it tests my patience filling up the white paper space with line art.
I don’t have my scanner around me, so I took a photograph of the sketch with my mobile phone and emailed to myself to get the image . So the quality of the image is obviously not good. Sorry about that!

The Cricket Crazy Nation

On top of the tall buildings surrounding the cricket stadium in India. India is about to win the cricket match!!
I doodled this straight onto an A4 size ivory paper with a double tipped Pentel permanent marker. No prior penciling done. It took me around three hours to complete this.

My Book on Computers
Phew! At Last!!
The front cover for the book I plan to write is over!
I want it to be a very detailed book, so I might have to wait till there are some more advancements and hindrances that I could use as examples.
The book will have 22,500 pages, and if I write one page a day (of course, I’m off on saturdays and sundays), I should be completing this book in approximately 75 years.
Now, this leads to a problem.
Will computers last that long??
