Live Sketching Story Board..

I had to make a story using live sketches..
each sketch was to be made in less than 3min..
the practice included sketches to be made in less than 15sec but just bcz this was the final thing so we had like 3 min to complete each sketch. the story was just suppose to have human figures without any expression.We had to capture just the gesture and the action.
two of my friends posed for me.
my story was:


After a very happy day at college, Anumeha was whistling while walking back to her pg in the sfs colony. But a shocking turn of events took place. A guy with a mask on his face started following her. She got scared and increased her pace. The man ran and stopped her. He showed her a knife and asked her to give him all her money. Anumeha got petrified and refused but when he thrust the knife closer to her throat, she agreed. She took out all the money from her bag and gave it to him. Suddenly the guy started laughing and removed his mask. He was one of her close friends, Nishit. Then the girl gave a sigh of relief and slapped her friend jokingly. Throughout the way she continued hitting him.

Below are the sketches.

Self Portraits!

An attempt to make a self portrait.. we could just use shading tones in blocks.. no merging or smudging was allowed.. This was the first time i have tried making a portrait.

the second portrait was a tough task. i had to make a self portrait using a pen... using textures we had to get different dark and light tones.

Young Yelahanka!!

First project at Srishti..
The project we chose was to make students of yelahanka aware that even they are creative... we went and made them comfortable wth us and then asked them to compose their own songs, poems and music... recorded it and made an audio visual cd which we then distributed it to the children who composed it.

the cd is titled "Young Yelahanka"
