back to my father's days

My father is very fond of listening to old music. His favourite singer is Muhammad Rafi. I grew up listening to some of the best voices in bollywood industry. All thanks to my father.

regret....don't regret !!!!!!!!!!!

Once, a group of people were traveling on rocks at night...
A voice came from the sky that whosoever picks up the rocks will regret and whosoever doesn't pick up the rocks will regret...
Now, the people were confused...
How can this be?...
Whether you pick up the rocks or not, you will regret!...
Anyway, some people picked up the rocks and some didn't...
In the morning when they reached their homes, they saw that the rocks turned into diamonds...
Now, those people who didn't pick up the rocks started regretting saying "If only we had picked up some rocks..."
Those people who did pick some rocks also started regretting saying "Why didn't we pick up more rocks?"..
Both sides ended up regretting.

laughing matter

Recently I have done two sketches and It was an incredible experience. Both portraits represent real life and result of my exploration.

I finished one very good novel written by Manmohan Bawa ji. Its called "Yud Nath". Its about Alexander crusade in India and local tribes' resistance against him. Clever mind of Chanakiya and Chander Gupt Moaraya becoming powerful emperor of India.

The way ancient India was explained in the novel is marvelous. so I wanted to sketch face out of my imagination and end result was "Kamauni Guy". Typical "Pahari Face".

Second sketch represents my answer to boredom. I wanted to create  a mad man laughing out of his lungs. I found this guy in my cousin's painting catalogue. His name is Swami Gurdial singh who spent good numbers of year with Rajneesh and taught his followers the secret of good laugh.

Enjoy
