Where the Devil are You Son?
I was called to judge an event back in college. One of the teams on stage was so pathetic that I ended up doodling on the scoring sheet. Later on I refined the sketch and.... VOILA!

Unmasking
Unmasking
This one started of as a screwed up cartoon character (those weird pants). Managed to salvage the pants into something meaningful - the gracefully malnutritioned chap. Threw the mask in to freak out any art critics out there.
Note the elastic band biting into the poor chaps hips.

The Zombie head on the lower left-hand corner was inspired by Niel Tennant's mug on a cassette sleave. Niel Tennant is the singer of the duo Pet Shop Boys.
Hair Drying & Corruption
Hair Drying & Corruption
One dries hair, while the other is getting wrapped up in corruption. What a crock of Shit! Actually they r 2 seperate cartoons done for kicks & they just so happened to be on the same sheet.

Art Nouveau Design 2

I've used the 4th complex as in 'Art Nouveau Design 1'. Rotated & scaled the arrangement a bit.

Recently bought a book called 'Art Nouveau' by Lara-Vinca Masini. Art Nouveau is one my favourite forms of art. After a lot of weird dreams induced by this book, I decided to take a crack at it. A bit of fooling around & there you have it!
The 1st complex created by the motif reminds me of chitinous wings of a fly. By that logic:
* Fly + Fly = Moth (The 2nd complex)
* Moth + Moth = 2 Moths Plotting World Domination (The 3rd complex)
* (2 Moths Plotting World Domination)+ (2 Moths Plotting World Domination) = 2 Moths Plotting World Domination, squashed by a Maltese Cross (The 4th complex, by now a horrible mess)
Aashiq thought that the deisgn on the fly's wings resembled a man in the padmasana pose.

Butterfly Shockwave
Butterfly Shockwave
The shcokwave effect was an accident. I was trying to draw human figures in various poses in under 10 seconds time for practise. Erased a particular pose's limbs & left the torso & head (which latter beacame the butterfly's body). Added in wings. Spongings & smearings later Voila!
Self Portrait
Self Portrait
Ocassionally I go nuts & do a self portrait. Besides, if any of my stuff has got a beard you could definitely conclude that I'm indulging in narcissism. This was done about the same time as 'Insulated' using MS Paint.
Insulated
Insulated
This image was inspired by insulated copper wires & an emotional low. A bit cartoony.

Dejection
Dejection
This picture started of as a doodle on Corel Photo-Paint 11, while I was talking to Aashiq, online. Initially I used some blues & purples. Then I flood filled it with a dark green accidentally & started spraying in The Yellow regions on a whim. An hours job later I got something called 'Dejection'. You might wan't to click on the pic to enlarge it.
