Koozba is a new jobsite starting up soon in India which is going to allow candidates upload their Video CVs. For it's launch it required a series of web viral videos done. These are two videos in the series that was done for them. The rest were mostly instructional hence not entertaining :D. Was glad to work for a client who was ready to try something different. Loved the sleepless nights and charged up days these videos demanded :D

The episode of the giant woman

One day a little girl went wandering holding onto a fine silver thread that no one else could see. Up she came a flight of stairs and saw a room glowing like silver. She hide awhile behind the door and watched the Giant Lady who looked young but had flowing silver hair weave the most beautiful white feather like fibre. After awhile the lady looked up and smiled as if she knew the little girl was always there and invited her so kindly in that the little one who till then had fear in her heart forgot it all and sat by her...

Very sketchish but I so loved penning what was in my mind. Click on the pic for a better view :)

Grandmother's Tales

Illustrations from a new book in process. Love love paper cut outs :D

Puss In Boots

'Puss in Boots' a book illustrated by me for Scholastic Worldwide.
The story is of a miller's son who inherits only a cat from his father and is distressed of what fortune he would make of it. But 'Puss' is no ordinary cat and sets out with his master's bag, hat and of course the pair of boots to make him a fortune and much more. Reminds me of T.S.Elliot's mystery cat called 'Macavity'. Cats them all, with panache.

Tee

The t-shirt was made for a foreign market. Wonder if anybody would wear this in India..
