Art-1

Art is one of the best things you can do for relaxation. Most people don't ever draw anything, and so don't think they're any good. Punjabis are usually not encouraged to pursue art. That’s why there aren’t many professional Punajbi artists around. So, the next time you have some time grab a pencil and paper and you'll amaze yourself, who knows you just might go BIG!

Art classes in school were a lot of fun; I still remember most of the stuff that was taught. I don’t think any of the really good artists in school actually went on to study art at Emily Carr or other institutes.

I've done a lot of art over the years. Most of it has been lost. I still draw stuff when there’s free time. I'll post stuff I have over the next few days. And later when there’s more available.

Below is some of the artwork I did last month. It’s on regular plain 8.5 X 14 paper drawn with a standard HB pencil. The funny looking color is because my scanner bed was too small for this paper and had to shot this with a digital camera.

This is copied from a sketch in a book by John Hamilton.

This cartoon-like drawing is from memory. Two guys playing ping-pong.
