Point

This word reminds me of only one thing instantly, that is, Dance. We practice pointing our feet all the time. Nowadays we are practising for the annual cultural festival of our college, and while we practice, we also teach the younger members of the dance team. So in the warm-up exercises, we are going. "Point Flex Point Flex...Other Side...Point Flex Point...". These days are the best days of college life, minimum studies, maximum activity. :P :D Imagine, students dancing around all the time, heaven!
This also takes me back to my dance classes, where again, our instructors made us do a lot of pointing, of the feet of course. I must say, those guys and girls work hard to get the best out of us. Now i can remember their words, "Point Flex Point and In...Point Flex Point and In" and then, "point, develope', flex and spray(x3)...and in. . .point, develope', flex and spray(x3)...and in"
And actually it's a funny cycle, thanks to them, i'm saying the same words, now, to my juniors, in college, during study hours.  Point. . .

    What a lovely, lively post! Made me point my feet as I read along. I love that you are teaching the younger students, that must be very fulfilling.

    Like Karen, I also pointed my toes as I read this. But, I got cramped up. Now my calf muscle feels like a bowling ball! Great piece! Loved it.

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) :)
