National Doctor’s Day 2021

This year, doctors have played a major role during the pandemic. Here’s wishing these angels, a very Happy Doctor’s Day, in my own style.

Mohini Mandala

A mandala as it is called in Sanskrit is a  ‘circle’, and a geometric configuration of symbols. A mandala generally represents the spiritual journey, starting from the outside universe to the inner core, through layers.

Drawing mandalas provides the benefits of meditation – it calms the inner self. It improves concentration and heals from within.

I’ve made this mandala over a yellow, orange and red background. It looks so rich and vibrant, I’ve named it Mohini – the enchantress.

International Yoga Day

Yesterday was International Yoga Day. Surya namaskar or sun salutation is an integral part of Yoga. It combines 12 asanas or poses for a complete body workout.

This is my version of surya namaskar depicted by combining mandala art (for the sun) and Warli (for the human figure poses).

Kusudama – Posy

To have some activity during lockdown, I’ve ordered 1000 sheets of origami paper and now I’m totally into making kusudamas – or medicine balls – round flower like balls made by modular origami.

The models are designed and named by a few origami artists and sometimes the instruction videos are available but sometimes I have to work it out by looking at the models.
