The Fluoroscent Love Clone Affair Stamp.

I always had a thing for bright and neon and fluorescence. But recently it's just taking over. These be evidences. And then the clone stamp in Photoshop. I think its an affair. Or a fling. Well, I'm not quite sure.


My faculty.
Original Name : Dhiman Sengupta


The nympho and the takers.


Well, Lady GaGa influences. Hence the 'Disco Stick'.

All sketches done during class.

Illustration Friday - Unfold

I always found origami very fascinating. I tried hard but could never figure it out. One of the ways I thought I could get it right was by 'unfold'ing the whole structure, but by the time I would, it seemed impossible to get it back to what it was!
Though I was successful in getting the origami swan back to the sheet of paper...err... well, almost.
Sigh.

That Old Sketchbook.




Funny how as we grow up, we change. Our eating habits change (in my case, they just grow), our lifestyles change and so does our choice of music. Well, so much for thinking I was over the Black Eyed Peas. Their much much anticipated album, the E.N.D. is finally out and I'm already weak in the knees. I don't know how they do it, but I'm addicted. So I look back at these sketches I did a seemingly long long while back. These were album covers I wanted to 'draw' for their albums, Monkey Business and their latest yet-to-come-out-at-that-time album, the E.N.D. and I pictured how I wanted them to look. Now that I look at them, I can find a gazillion flaws in them, some very very unacceptable, but I love them for the love I made them with. Brimming with nostalgia as summer vacations get over, I pack my world to take back to college for yet another expectantly eventful year waiting ahead.

Illustration Friday : Craving




OK. Finally an Illustration Friday topic where I instantaneously think of what I'm going to use. Yes, I am craving for a huge, luscious, creamy, beautiful, godly slice of wonderful wonderful cheesecake!
Any will do, lemon, blueberry, mango, cherry, mocha, kiwi or more!
So, any givers?

The one above is the version that I drew recently, the bottom one being an old drawing:)

Dingbat the Singing Cat


Recently, my dear dear friend Kaveri Gopalakrishnan told me to about this site, Mooshy Moo, someone else had told her about. Its of this band that makes free music. It more or less falls into to the electronic genre. I'm not really a fan, but I happily downloaded all I could find and I must say, I'm hooked on to it. One of the songs, as the title reads, 'Dingbat the Singing cat', from Dalt Wisney's album 'Lifetime Psychedelic Dance Lessons' is absolutely addictive. While I was listening to it, There was this visual that came to my mind. So I drew it out. I didn't really picture it like this in my mind, but I'm OK with how this came out. Ah. The joy of drawing model-y things. And yes, This happens to be practically my second attempt at drawing a cat. Oh, and the song is fun. The lyrics go something like this :

'Dingbat, the singing cat,
She disappeared and that was that'
and now folks can sleep, sleep,
sleep till the break of day.
Meow, meow, meow.'

Ah. I end up writing too much. I need an editor.

Illustration Friday : Cracked

Ok, This is perhaps my longest blog post. Anyway, for this week's Illustration Friday, I could only come up with this idea. It kind of traces back to my childhood. Well, as a kid, I was a hungry kid. very hungry. I wanted food. Hell with the world. Thankfully now its not the same. Ha! It involves some more hunger, some hard work, and finally being able to have 'cracked' the egg cracking***. Here goes...

Little Jassi got up one evening to realize no one was at home.
Momma was out for her evening walk and daddy for the cricket coaching.


Little Jassi was hungry. And bad.



'Ah! The fridge! But it will be locked like momma always keeps it when she goes out.'*


*yes, she used to do this. otherwise I'd eat everything inside it.



But like hunger found a way to his tummy;
Little Jassi always found a way to the top of the refrigerator...


... and be victorious.



As the golden light from the refrigerator glowed, little Jassi would soon find heaven.
'The appliance is calling to me...'


'But then... I can't cook vegetables and fruits are too healthy. Hmmm... What could I do?'



'I know... EGGS! They're easy, and I've seen Mum do it.
And how difficult could it get anyway?!?'



So he popped them in the frying pan. After all, who doesn't like scrambled eggs!?!
But something felt not-so-right.



'Uh...'




'YUCKH!!!
I made scrambled egg shells! Can't eat this... what now?'





'Ah! all hard work down the drain!' Little Jassi exclaimed as he did what he had to...

"TRRRINGGG!!!"
the doorbell rang.

'Oh my god! Now what do I do??'






'Ahem ahem...'



But Mommy dearest knew something strange had been cooking.
Little Jassi had left dead giveaways!



Like this...



... and this...



...annnd this...



'OK little one! WHAT, may I ask, have you been upto?'



'I... uhh... I...w...ww...was... just... uhh... h... hhh... hungry...'



And little Jassi was excused thanks to the I'm-so-sorry puppy dog face.
As he ended up with food in his stomach and a lesson in how to crack eggs!


And he, after a fine gap of eight years, finally got it.
Happy cracked-ing:)

**Sorry mom, for making you look so tyrranous, you don't look like this. But hey, I gave you pretty swell sneakers there! Love you:)

Illustration Friday : Contagious

Wow. this entry is happening after soooo much procrastination its not even funny. As each week passed, Illustration friday rolled out really cool topics; and I was absolutely uninspired to do anything on any of them. After knowing what this week's topic was, there was only one word that came to my mind. And then... I 'yawn'ed. So I quickly took a pencil and it took me two days to figure out a yawning mouth's movement. I hope I have managed to get it right.



This was another little idea that came to my mind, as I remembered school days and how boring some classes were and how we had to sit through them, so I decided to draw it out too.
Hope you like it.
Please leave feedback!

And boy, Yawns sure are contagious.
