Women on the Delhi Metro, part 2

The mobile phone is surely the lifeline of commuters everywhere. Here’s a girl gossiping on the phone while her neighbor is engrossed in eating a bhutta (corn) even though eating is not allowed on the Metro.

She’s drinking juice while talking on the phone –

While this girl is talking on a phone held to her ear and watching a video on another one in her hand!

*(OH: You’re so jealous of my happiness)

I would draw the women at 6 pm than the ones at 7:45 anyday!

The brown boy in Paris

The brown boy had a fantastic time in Paris last summer.

He began by showing off the only word in his French vocabulary…
Then, he found posters of his favorite bande dessinées auteurs and ate les moules frites

He loved the quaint hotel on the top floor in Montmatre, and soon got used to walking up the hill

Charmed by the Mona Lisa, despite the crowds of Japanese tourists and their cameras, and inspired by Van Gogh,

he spent days drawing in cafés and only pausing to see some of the sights –

I think he will agree that we got enough inspiration for at least a year.

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.
