“The world slumbers in silence , as wordless first light emerges in stillness to lull somber souls “
#poetry #photography #morning #meditative #reflection
Grateful to gaze at the sky, while many across borders scramble for such moments wishing the world could be better,with more kindness and peace.

I’ve always seen procrastination in art creation as a kind of reflection , a quiet, meditative space. The beauty of creating often emerges in those moments. I’m hoping to finally finish these pieces in the coming months or maybe they’ll always remain a work in progress.

Sharing a study. I used to rely on hatching for values, but since last year, I’ve been exploring different pencils. A fellow artist suggested this, and I’ve been enjoying the results. Excited to apply this in future works.

As summer fades,these humble plants,
made me reflect on the philosophy of memento mori. Nature, in its silence, teaches the deepest lessons. This drawing I’ve made earlier will forever carry the warmth of this summer.

A small glimpse from a piece I’ve been working on for a commission. As things outside slow down, I’m finding my rhythm. Just in time for the calmer nights ahead. Curious to see what body of work will emerge this winter.

During my routine long trail run, I came across this scene,a composition that made me realize just how small we are in the face of nature’s vastness.
As Horace once wrote, “We are but dust and shadow”

This summer, we planted tomatoes, and watching them grow reminded me of nature’s quiet stillness,always observing, growing in silence. I captured that feeling in these drawings and gifted them to a loved one.

The stray sparks at coffee houses these fleeting sketches on my notebook often guide me forward to conceptualise a larger work. They may seem unfinished at that time, but their meaning tends to grow.
Curious where this will take me !!!!

During my long run,came across these tall grasses moving as the wind swayed , got me thinking on words of Rousseau read long time back - “Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains” - Hopefully someday we could be unbound like those Tall Grass.

Somedays in the Hiding,
Somedays in the Open,
Strange games we play,
Someday this search ends.

During my commute to work couldn’t resist myself to capture this. Very much inspired by Bresson. Play of light and the shadows casted always exited me. In a nutshell aren’t we all hiding in our very own shadows waiting for a light ?

Recently finished reading The Hidden Life of Trees by Peter Wohlleben. I was drawn to this book with the hope of understanding trees more deeply. Now, I’m curious to see how this insight will influence my upcoming works. In the end, aren’t we made of the same things?

I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of? - Keane.
