The Mystery

This post has been published by me as a part of the Blog-a-Ton 17; the seventeenth edition of the online marathon of Bloggers; where we decide and we write. To be part of the next edition, visit and start following Blog-a-Ton.



What lies beyond,
An ocean full of sharks
or a land of ease?
A space with no gravity
or a ground of morality?
An endless search
or that special soul?
The end of being 
or the garden of eve?

What lies beyond, 
Lots of uncertainty
or mental stability...

    Therefore with such an endless quest where there is no definite answer...there remains a mystery!

    True! Well done, this one! :-)

    ATB for BAT 17!

    The mystery of what lies beyond the unknown shall always be a mystery. That is what makes it so important to our lives. The mystery makes us yearn for answers; makes us long to seek for more knowledge and never attain all of it.
    Loved your take on the prompt.
    All the best for the BAT.

    Your selection of the picture elevates the beauty of the words that you composed and the question that will always be left unanswered till doomsday, or even beyond that. Well done. All the best.

Black Sketch

Something i drew last night...for the reason why i mostly draw...to get rid of sadness/trouble. Couldn't get a better picture. . . Also it was really hard, on a useless black paper, with the worst pencil colours ever. If it is too bad, then just for the idea of the drawing, there are houses, tree trunks, two people, clouds, grass and a road in it. so i realised that it is a Sunday, hence, I'm over to Sunday Sketches now. :)

A Dedication to Mr Picasso

I know i draw without taking any lessons and so most of my drawings might be technically incorrect (and sometimes hard to draw too), but at the end of the day, what matters is that i love it. This one is an Oil on Paper, my first proper oil on paper portrait. Took me about 4 hrs (i guess i should buy new brushes, they don't look so good . .) and now i can't breathe, thanks to the turpentine. Looking forward to your priceless feedback. :)

Sketch Pen Stuff

My sister got new sketch pens, and while she was sitting watching FRIENDS till late at night, though very sleepy, I decided to draw, and came up with this (with a few others, that I haven't shared here): The background here is MS Paint. And then a few nights later, when I was just irritated because nothing seemed to be working at all, I made this (by the number of mistakes in it, you can tell i was irritable that day): And last to last night, I just wanted to escape from the scenery on the right to the scenery on the left: A very good morning and a happy Sunday to you! The weather is pleasant, as the rainy season(monsoon) is about to start, so the best thing to do is to view some lovely artwork at The Blue Chair Diary's Sunday Sketches , while listening to some awesome music. :) P.S. no pencils used at all (such a relief not to use the eraser) :)
