"I found you lazy, no initiative guy and non hard working.  Then I got a call from your uncle who is a local MLA yesterday evening.  I have actually missed these points. You are good in planning,  seek cooperation and seek support for your actions.  Therefore here is the promotion order . I am signing it. "

The problem is concave and convex planes. 

Andrew Loomis has written about it. I shall strive to master this aspect of rendering. 


Now corrected.

Mera Bharat Mahaan

 

Pencil is really wonderful.  There is nothing quite like it. 

Don't forget to buy/download 'Fun with Pencil ' by Andrew Loomis. 

I have grown up dreaming of Pratap Mullick, Ram Waerekar, Halbe and others associated with Amar Chitra Katha and Tinkle.

Okra plant

I am doing coloring practices these days.

I do cross hatching,  cosine hatching and circulism during coloring. 

I did Okra plant coloring.  It didn't come out well.


I shall take up more fruits and vegetables.  And buildings like Qutab Minar etc.

Bye for now !!

Passing notes

Drawing art requires talent and skill. Resemblance is talent. Coloring is skill. So I believe. 

If you realize Marcello Barenghi is extremely talented and extremely skilled. 

I have decent talent. Lesser skills.

Therefore I would like to develop skills. And spend precious time on it.

Oranges

 

I am focusing on fruits images from Google and drawing them. This I believe will improve my coloring skills a lot.

Bananas

 

This was done by copying a Google image using Brolaviya mobile stand and DaVinci eye app. 

The coloring is done using Faber Castell polychromos pencils 120.

What I hope to achieve is improving coloring skills with my own shading style. 

I get feedback from the number of visitors to this particular blog post.  This I am able to see and more the visitors more the liking.

My recent portraits are liked more than my cartoons jokes. My earlier Pomegranate drawing was also liked considerably.

Have a nice day and Sunday.
