A river runs through it
Completed around Sep-04

Sketching a perfect landscape is like a dream for me. The above 2 sketches are not completely landscape drawings but at least the background is related. My dad made a very big copy of this sketch to keep it in our house.
I completed these drawings in engineering final year(2003).I wanted to make a diary for a friend of mine as a birthday gift.I never tried in colours till then and was not interested in making a diary with pencil drawings.I was not sure of the idea as I am very bad at imagination(i mean to draw on my own). I confirmed the idea when I was introduced to Natalia Pierandrei's art work by Reethi.I thank Satya for scanning the pictures as I dint make a copy then.This experiance gave me confidence that I could try something in colours too.I tried everything that was at hand to draw these...colour pencils,pens,crayons and sketch pens. It's been a long time I did these sketches and I am glad that there is an improvement in the sketches I do now.

Sita-Rama-Lakshmanulato Hanumantudu
Proportions of lord Siva are not correct, but I din't realise it until my sister pointed it out. I like the way the cow turned out.
This was my first sketch where I tried shading.I did the outline and kept it aside for a month as I was not sure about how to shade.This is a perfect example: I generally don't have patience to work on a sketch after a certain time. I worked hard on this but dint have the patience to draw the mouse properly. Completed in Aug-03
I was very skeptical when I started this as I was drawing after a long gap.
"Ganesha" dint come out that well but this sketch took a very long time and I dint have patience to work on this any longer
Meera-My dad fixed this to the glass display in our house.
Completed around Dec-04
I somehow don't like the features in his face but it was too late to make any corrections.
Completed around May-04
Meera-I did this on the request of my friend Meena.This came out good only because of my Dad's feedback on the initial drawing.
