The picture named by Tunha(Alone) is drawn nicely. Features are quite clear and pencile work is so good but onething which lake is this drawing is that the expressions of pictures are not of a lonely person. There is a lot of clamness in the expressions which tends to the Sufi or Rashi ( Mystic person or Saint ).

rad:

they are all nice…specially liked the Dream…enigmatic and imaginative…

the titles are mixed up…or I may be wrong…should not # 4 titled bob marley be ‘tunha’ and # 2 should be bob?

have you had any exhibitions?

Both the ending portraits are eye-catching and lead to the artist’s imagination. Very Pretty and well thought out.

Some very good work-esp. self portrait and the dream. Please let us know if you are making prints available.

Radhika:
Good stuff. Eclectic. Liked the Bob Marley sketch, although it was ’straight’ and loved the expression of the girl in B/W portrait. But what got to me most was ’The dream of the hoopoe bird’...I liked the progression of the dream; as you move from right to left of the portrait...you can feel the dream take wings and almost at the end merge with the ephemeral/sufi thought. God knows if I am seeing more than I ought to...but that’s the way I like it!

If you enjoy/dabble in miniature art, the woman in the green saree would have worked wonderfully in that genre.

Regards,
F

Nice work. I liked the kid with the tabla one. Isn’t the ’Hoopoe bird’ a book title too ?... it sounds really familiar.

Regards
