pretty little things - 02

Here comes the next illustration in my series. I am a non-smoker, but beautifully crafted smoking pipes sure make me gaze at them, may be even at people who hold them :) These little things of beauty are example of perfect balance in design. Following the general belief that smoking kills, I like to call this exquisitely made object, 'a beautiful killer' :)

pretty little things - 01

This project, is not really a project. I just made a list of a few things I find beautiful, and started drawing them. Using a computer to render my drawings was fun and exciting. I am no illustrator, but a little doodling here and a little scribbling there always makes me happy. If you are not an artist either, try spilling some ink or finish up a stick or two of crayons on paper aiming to achieve absolutely nothing, and you'll know what I mean. Here is the first object of my fancy from what I hope will become an interesting series of illustrations.
