Title: Enjoying Summer Location: South Extension, India Date: 30 August 2015
Happy Monday people, another week and another chance to get it right! Every Monday, I post something inspirational so we can start our week on the right note. This week, I wanted to share this info-graphic from Buzzfeed which has some amazing life quotes from fictional characters. Although these first appeared in kids entertainment programs, they probably make for more sound advice than anything adults can offer. Each one of these is worth a read, and remembering them first thing in the morning will help start the day on a positive note! In fact, I think this image deserves to be printed and put on our workstations so we can stay motivated…
Title: Train Tales Location: Jaipur, India Date: 22 August 2015 “…Manzil se behtar lagane lage hain ye raste…”. Translation: the roads seem better than the destination. This photograph was clicked on a hastily planned train journey last weekend. Sometimes, it’s a good idea to travel spontaneously and see where it takes you. Impromptu travel can give you a fresh perspective, time to introspect and memories that last a lifetime.
We are rounding up a fantastic week of celebrating illustrated art on the blog today, and what better way to wrap it up then a post on illustrated owls? Whimsical, cute, mysterious, or just plain funny, owl illustrations are always a treat for the eyes. I love having a good illustrated owl as my wallpaper, it keeps me happy and positive! Below are some of my favorite owl illustrations, which ones do you like the best? (Image Credits: Image 1, Image 2, Image 3, Image 4, Image 5, Image 6, Image 7, Image 8, Image 9, Image 10)
Illustrated playing cards are so much fun to look at, they almost always end up distracting me from the game! Illustrations done for a pack of playing cards tend to be creative as well as extremely versatile. Given that a deck of cards has restrictions of space and content, it requires a massive stretch of the artist’s imagination to come up with something unique and interesting. There are all kinds of illustrated playing cards – artistic and playful, vintage and contemporary, multicolored as well as black and white and so on – the list is endless! Here are some interesting playing card illustrations which caught my eye, do you like them…
