sik individual (sikin)


so my cousin calls hersel sick individual!!! you should listen to this angel on her guitar and on the mic! sik! i cant remember where i got ths picture!!!

a millie


this portrait has the funniest story!! the lady who had me do this asked me to make her look innocent because shes been told she has a guilty look by more than 5 people and she was getting worried!! hahahaha. she gave me a few of her pictures, smiling, sleeping, jumping etc i put them all together and please tell me if this looks innocent!

unblocked


so i walk into my office and theres a major artist block in my system!! i have seven portraits to do before the end of the week which is 3 days away and i haven't even started! i log into facebook and go through random pictures!! i come across this sepia one and i start sketching unconsciously! playing around with my pencil...
my colleague, who was passing behind me says in a modest voice "that's great work sketch"
now lemme meet those deadlines!!! =)

upon a shinning star


beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder,
haha!
your eyes are my stars,
stars i see shoot even with my eyes closed,
stars that shine through my cloudy frame,
assures me that the One who created the stars,
is the same One who created your eyes....

purple rain


this was my first work using pastels. i have no idea why i chose purple. but im sure i know why i call it 'purple rain'. i know purple is good stuff, n i need nothing less than rainfall...ok that doesnt make sense!!!

leather deep


this is a portrait of a model. i know "beauty is skin deep" but you should see this beauty in a pair of boots...hahaha. thats why this piece is called 'beauty is leather deep'. oh n ud be amazed how well i know this particular model.

wax


i found something new to work with and i did. this is a potrait of wakoli, i was inspired by her voice. i call it wax.

sleeping angel


i did this sometime back,this was actually my first time using charcoal. pencil and charcoal randomly play different roles in this beautiful piece.

purple glitter

this is a potrait i did of one of the prettiest things in the world, purple, thus 'purple glitter'. i have a habit of doing potraits of people in my special circle, and this is one of them.
