festival of lights
one of my utmost favorite things about diwali was placing tealights all around.
it was like transforming your world for one night…
janmashtami
janmashtami is the celebration of krishna’s birth. when krishna was a child, he was mischievous, and one of my favorite stories is how he would steal butter from a mutka (clay pot) that was suspended from the ceiling.
in india, on krishna’s birthday, they celebrate this favorite story by suspending clay pots with milk and butter and men pile on top of each other in these amazing human towers to break the pot.
have a great weekend!
sindhoor
it’s the one year anniversary of the best day of my life.
we’re off to hawaii, so no sketches for awhile.
have a great week!
hawai jahaz
one of my hubbahubba’s favorite words in hindi is “hawai jahaz” which means airplane, i was thinking of how cute it sounds from his lips when i drew this…
veranda
I had a lot of fun creating the patterns for this! I am taking a break from sketch of the day for awhile – lots of projects I need to focus on. I hope to be back soon!
diya
at a certain point in the year, i start getting excited about diwali. it’s right around my birthday too, so the celebrations seem to multiply. that’s what i was thinking about when i sat down to draw this morning.
hope you have a great day!
