The elephant in the room!

More elephants! As you may see previous posts, elephants is a repetitive theme. I added these elephants recently in my home office. Well, if you believe in the idiom "elephant in the room", trust me, there is no obvious problem to solve.. or nothing to hide and not talk about. Infact plenty to talk about as these paintings are in my zoom as my background when I am on video calls! You may say, I am blowing my trumpet here.. haha!

A journey with friends



March 2022 - a strange time when my health was up and down, I got a text from Sathiya and Bharathi about this project. "This is a story which is a gift for our friends.. the story needs this vulnerable baby elephant, the little girl and a sparrow! And yes, by the way, we would like this in a week!"  And the next thing I knew I was doodling some 30 plus sketches for the book.. all line and wash and yes, forgot all about my health issues. Absolutely thrilled to be part of this journey.. my friends and their friends are just the humblest of the humblest and this journey made me humble just by association. The book is published and gifted .. I have a copy and the memories.
