IVS Alumni show III

As i had mentioned earlier that i’ll be participating in the Alumni show this December and at that point in time i had NO clue what i’d be doing for the show.
And one stormy night.. heheh.. ohkay not stormy..umm.. winddyy night.. i was sitting on the kitchen counter sipping on my mug of coffee.. and doodling in my sketchbook. I just thought to myself.. i have to do something that is ME. Last year I did a series of rooftop illustrations that made ME very happy.. but this time..i wanted to do something different. So as i flipped through the pages of my doodle diary… i saw the doodles.. page by page..and there clicked an idea.. I’ll do cushions out of these :) and hence i did!!! The response has been great so far. The work is part of my creative studios :)

The show runs till the 31st of December at the Indus Valley School of art and architecture!


Indulgence

Just last night i indulged myself in some ME time. I’d say though i have some time off from school aka a winter break i havent really given time to myself, my thoughts… in other words the much required ‘me time’. So i stepped outside.. the cold winds.. the traffic.. the darkness..My Chand mian… the stars.. everything was the same..the rooftop seemed lonely.. I hadnt really spent time there. I climbed the real rooftop(yes i am very daring that way) sat there for an hour or so..hummed a few songs..chilled.
I kept thinking..whts this life all about? Why am i working so hard.. that i’m not being able to give time to myself. Not that i’m complaining but just thinking aloud. Later i sat on the jhoola.. swinging.. back and forth.. back and forth..I clicked a few pictures. Enjoyed holding my OWN camera. Its a feeling only I know…the sense of achievement :) Alhamdolillah!
Thanking Allah Mian at every step of life. Creating new stuff..Life’s good.
Looking forward to the new year.. new beginnings.. new goals.. new deadlines.
but but.. Allah Mian.. Whats the plan? ;)
