Anna Hazare

Anna Hazare is a Gandhian. During the last few years of Manmohan Singh led Congress government he raised public opinion on Lokpal issues.  The movement was strong.  Public all over India got moved. People wanted change.  And this change was reflected in their voting. And Modi led BJP government came in power.

But Anna Hazare still lives a simple Gandhian life. He is a great man !! A true leader !!

"I have seen that man leaving his home around 25th of month and returning back on 2nd of next month with his bag and briefcase.  I have seen this on two occasions.  I think his salary must be getting over by 25th and his wife throws him out of his house. And when he gets the salary next month he returns back. What better reason could be there?"

"Beta you and my son are working in the same department and the same company.  My son says as an Indian he should be getting only two simple meals per day, 20000 rupees in salary and one fan and led lamps. He is unable to account for such high income which entitles to buy 5 star lunches and AC.  Due to this he has got into depression.  I hope he comes out of depression soon "

"You are a new recruit.  I have been observing you for some time.  I like you and your commitment.  But I feel you were pampered by your parents.  You have got things in a silver plate. However,  I am willing to mentor you and teach you on management,  finance, materials and marketing aspects of our company. Stay with me and consider me your guru."

Thank you so much

 

Lou Darvas is my guru. I have his materials at home. His art was full of action. 

Ken Hultgren is wonderful. And impossible. He is too good. And he worked with Disney's.

Andrew Loomis is the most wonderful guy in art. Millions of guys follow the Loomis head method. He means a lot to me. I have learnt a lot from him.

Can drawings speak more than photographs? Yes, if they are caricatures drawn by Tom Richmond. I have his book at home.

I am practicing these days

I am doing practices in funny cartoons and  portraits.

Funny cartoons 

Use of cuboids, cones, cylinders and spheres 

Perspective practices of same action

Lou Darvas mentioned method of simple outline 

Portraits 

Bulge out planes and cave in planes practices 

Also I shall be using Crayola crayons for portraits.  Of course it cannot be used with skin colored pencils because crayons need to be applied while skin colored pencils need to be made strokes with. What I mean is some of the portraits drawing of future will be a complete Crayola crayons work. Wait for a portrait to be drawn with them.

Till then , goodbye.  Have a wonderful day!!

All my art materials at one place

I wanted to make a blog post of all my art materials placed in my balcony and their photos. 

Here are they.

I feel possessive of my art materials.  They are costly for me. I thank the internet world for most of the materials.  

Good Sunday morning friends.  Enjoy your day!!

"There is the man I was talking about.  On holidays and Sundays he will leave his home at 12 noon. And would return only at 2 pm or so. I think his wife does not serve him lunch on holidays and Sundays.  He manages food in temples, bhandaras and langars. What better reason could be there?"

"Beta, you and my daughter are in the same company and same department.  My daughter says throughout the world men want women to be positive and sincere in approach. But in your company men look out for beauty and attractiveness in women, she says. Due to this she has got into depression.  I hope she comes out of depression soon. "
