GOLDEN-RETRIEVER AND FLOWERS

This is another painting from THEARTSHERPA on Youtube. It is a awesome painting of a golden-retriever with a mouthful of colorful flowers. There isn’t much to say except that the best part of this painting is the expression in the eyes of the golden-retriever along with it’s fur and the colorful flowers going well with each other to create this beautiful composition!!!

MADHUBANI LOTUS ON RECYCLED-PAPER

This is a paining made with acrylic paints on a recycled cardboard material to show a little bit of contribution from my side towards the environment. The steps to make this sort of cardboard are given below:

1) Take any old notebook- it should be completely filled. Tear it into medium sized pieces by tearing 1 page into 2 portions.

2) Take any container according you convenience and pour warm water in it. Soak the paper completely and if you have a lot of free time then you can leave it overnight.

3) If not, then you can use your hands or any other equipment like a masher to make a fine, thick paste of the paper.

4) Then spread it over a cloth and leave it outside to dry in the sunshine for approximately a little over 1 week. If you want it to dry earlier, then first use the cloth to soak out any excess water that is possible.

5) You can also make it into any shape you want and if you want it to have a design or so you can make imprints or decorate it while it is still a thick paste.

Then any design can be painted on it and there you are! Now you have a new decoration item (depend on your choice and creativity) or a cardboard for acrylic or modern art paintings all with recycled notebook!!!

BUTTERFLY & MANDALA

This is the beautiful designs of mandala drawn into a butterfly’s wing. The idea was taken from Facebook and I found it quite interesting, so I modified it in my way and here is the drawing! The best part of this design is the way the mandala designs correspond with the butterfly to make it really expressive and beautiful!!!

THE RAINBOW TREE

BLACK-WHITE MADHUBANI SCENE

This is another beautiful composition of the Madhubani style. The lady , the house , the goat, and tree combination and their positions were taken from soma@folkart from google. The designs, the filling and the black and white distribution was done by me. The best part of this composition is the intricate design going well with the scene!!!

GREAT LORD KRISHNA

This is another composition of Lord Krishna. In this drawing most of Lord Krishna’s way of living is depicted. The Peacock Feather symbolizes beauty, knowledge , felicity and joy along with the celestial wisdom of Lord Krishna. The flute is a symbol of Radha’s love and much more. The best part of this composition is the divine aura attained due to the expressive eyes!!!

RELAXATION MANDALA

THIS IS THE PLAIN DRAWING OF THE RELAXATION MANDALA WHICH I HAVE CAREFULLY DESIGNED. I HAVE INSERTED IT HERE IN CASE ANYONE WANTS TO COPY IT OR REFER TO IT FOR YOUR DESIGNS. THE DRAWING PART IMPROVES CONCENTRATION AND CALMS THE MIND !!!

This is the coloured relaxation mandala. Now it is quite likely that you are thinking, “What is relaxation mandala? And how is it different from the other mandalas?” Well I have also posted MULTI-COLOUR MANDALA. But this mandala is different from the others because when you design it it improves concentration and calms down our minds, not only that but even when you simply colour this type of a mandala it acts as a temporary stress reliever. In this particular relaxation mandala the theme is of the special vegetation and more over most recognised wildlife of my dear motherland – India. In the centre I have designed the ashoka- chakra but it has been drawn four times-Why? I have kept the entire design in four theme that is a square because I also wanted to depict the National Emblem of the Republic of India which is a four-sided and four-headed lion which faces the north , south, east and the west known for Satyameva Jayate. Infact I have designed the entire mandala in honour of our National Emblem. The best part of the mandala is the perfect synchronization of our National Emblem along with Tiranga- The Indian National Flag, the Ashoka-Chakra; which a part of our flag, the Lotus– our national flower, the Bengal Tiger– our national animal, the Peacock – our national bird, the Asian Elephant – our cultural symbol; the importance of Lord Ganesha in Indian’s life and the Indian King Cobra– often depicted with Lord Shiva ( the father of Lord Ganesha ) as Vasuki and Lord Vishnu as Adhishesha/Shesha/Sheshanaga and is worshipped as a symbol of  wisdom, changes, enchantment, hypnosis, protectiveness, danger, poison, determination, fear, strength, courage, confidence, transformation, royalty, death. They are also a symbol of speed, defensiveness, and gracefulness. I hope you enjoyed learning about our Indian Culture !!!

SAMUDR MANTHAN

This is a scene in of the Great Samudr Manthan that is recognised as one of the most significant events in Hinduism. I have composed it in one of the most traditional forms of art – Madhubani. I learnt this composition from a wonderfull workshop- the same workshop that taught me the Madhubani style. The best part of this drawing is the detailing, the colour scheme and the way the the scene has been imaginatively as well as creatively recreated!!!

RADHA – KRISHNA

This is another Madhubani drawing of the extremely well known Lord Krishna and Radha his dearly loved one. The idea and the main outline of the drawing was taken from soma@folkart, yet I have made changes like the colour scheme, filling, etc.The best part of this composition is the beautiful way Lord Krishna and Radha have been depicted, the artistic way in which the feeling of the composition reaches the observer!!!

PORTRAIT OF TAYLOR SWIFT

This is one of the many portraits I have drawn. This is a composition without colour (shaded) The idea was taken from Google, all have done is made some variation to it…. Taylor Swift is one of my favourite popstar so I was interested in drawing her portrait (in case you are wondering). The best part of this portrait is that her expressions are to almost perfection!!!

MULTI-COLOUR MANDALA

This a multi-colour mandala. It depicts the different combinations you can design within one type of drawing. The idea was taken from a Facebook photo of such a kind of mandala, yet I have made many variations in the drawing like for example the colour scheme can be anything that shows the differences along with the symmetry. The best part of this mandala is that it differentiates between each individual row and design without losing the symmetry of the composition!!!

MADHUBANI – A COVERT MEETING…

This is another drawing form the madubani style…the main symbols used in the drawing are the lotus and sugarcane in the background. Lotus motif symbolizes feminity while the Sugacane motif symbolizes a sense of mascular being. These two symbols are used widely as wall patterns especially on the walls of the house where newlyweds live. The best part of this composition is the use of the masculine and feminine figures that go along with the motifs in the background which creates mood of the composition!

COMIC ADAPTATION-LEAKY LIMERICKS

This is a comic adaptation done by me. The limerick is a poem from the Brain Quest. This is a type of art which amyone with a bit of imagination and creativity can do… as for me , even I too have done it only for fun! The best part about this type of art is that it creates visual effects for any poem which makes the poem reach to the reader very easily and it also it quite entertaining!!!

ARIPAN

This is a Aripan which is a type of tile design. It is related to a mandala as well as madhubani art as it is used as a tile design in the Indian state of Bihar. There is always a theme to this type of design. In my drawing, I have based the theme on nature. The best part of this design is that all the colours have given the effect they were intended to give, the cool water; the home of the lotus flower and the green parrots, warm yellow background along with the sharp red chillies which have given so much character to the design !!!

MANDALA

This is another form of art which is also very detailed and artistic. I have learned this form of art called Mandala from an awesome workshop…. the base of these drawings are completely geometrical. The best thing about this form of art is that it increases concentration and calms our mind!!!

THE ANGRY PENCIL

I belong to a little boy,

Who seems to think I’m a toy,

He doesn’t bother to use me for study,

And always shoots me at his buddy.

He also puts me through a lot of pain,

Sharpening me again and again,

I wish to do something horrible to him,

But, he has never yet become my victim.

But one day I’ll make sure to get my revenge,

You might think of me as strange,

I really wish I belonged to someone else,

Then, I could have lived happily and wouldn’t have had to plan such rebels!!!

SMILE PLEASE!

A smile is a curved line,

Which makes things straight,

A smile is an expression,

Which dissolves the feeling of hate,

A smile is a mile,

That stretches from ear to ear,

A smile is a symbol of assurance,

In the midst of fear,

A smile is the shortest distance between two people,

Without smiling we look quite feeble,

So always be sure to smile, my friends,

As it looks quite beautiful before all the latest trends!

GHOST

One night I felt eyes on me,

I opened my eyes as frightened,

 As anybody could be,

 Looking around,

I saw a shadow,

Hidden in the dark,

In a corner near the window,

With curiosity I watched it shift,

It suddenly turned to look at me,

And I made a dive into my blanket, really swift,

Towards me it started floating slowly,

The scene for me was quite not jolly,

Suddenly it grabbed my arm,

And I started shrieking,

Before it could do any harm,

Abruptly I was thrown off my bed,

Awakening with a throbbing head!
