In Augusts past

I’m not sure if you like these self-referential posts, but I think they help new visitors find some old, but nice, posts on inktales.

Anyway, here’s what I have done in Augusts past:

2010

Blogging the Paris journals – Day 02 | Day 09

Leaving, sadly | Thinking of love | Reading Toothpicks and Logos

2009

Mourning my dead Nokia phone

2008

My mother’s new ringtone

2007

Nothing to speak of.

2006 (Click on the images to see larger sizes)

Some things haven’t changed | A commissioned work on sexual harassment | My first animation film, 2001 |

Some pages from my Alphabet book, which you can buy here (though royalties are pending for years)

Writing I am… | Wish – that’s probably one talent lost

Some sleepy drawings

I can hardly recognize this girl.

Keeping up with inktales

So I’ve left Facebook and Google+. And I’m thinking of how to publicize new posts without the inktales page on Facebook.

Here are some other ways of following this blog, for the moment –

  • You can subscribe to the feed using iGoogle, Netvibes, or what have you.
  • You can follow me on Twitter
  • You can click the “Follow” link on the top of this page if you’re a WordPress user
  • Or you can leave your email at the bottom of this post and I will mail you when there’s an update.
Happy weekend.

Trip to Mcleodganj

A few weeks ago we took a tiny holiday and went to Mcleodganj in the hills where the Dalai Llama stays.

We were staying at Cloud’s End, a lovely estate between Dharmsala (the lower town) and Mcleodganj (the upper town)

Most of the days were spent hiking up to Mcleodganj.

These two monks spent most of their days in the cafes, we used to meet them every day

Then the monsoon arrived.


**bhajjias – potato fritters
**langurs – monkeys


**It was Lord Dalhousie I think, not Elgin.

Then I stopped drawing.

Years ago in June

In June 2010

I had just finished my thesis,

And was exploring metaphysics

And drawing the guide to inktales

In June 2009

The first year of my master program finished

And I was drawing some of the small joys of life

In June 2008

I didn’t draw at all…

In 2007

I drew a nightmare

In 2006

I was illustrating books about a grumpy king, some funny animals and unforeseen love poetry.

We fought about husbands and wives

and made up again.
