Great work over on his website, the edginess between modern and traditional is very interesting. I’m a great fan of traditional portraiture as a style.

Interesting way to bring a sketchbook to life, and Udaipur, ah land of dreams, my favorite city in all of Rajasthan, always worth the trip.

Illustrations for The Economic Times

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

I added another gallery of illustrations done between 1994 to 1996 for The Economic Times, India. These were done in Photoshop 2.0 and 2.5, before layers were introduced in Photoshop 3.0.

I’d do a rough pencil sketch, scan it in and go crazy with Paths and Kai’s power tools, remember those. Some of the more detailed ones would end up with approx. 200 paths before my 40mb ram Mac IIci would choke.

Luckily they were all greyscale, when I started doing full color illustrations for Business Today, I’d work them up as miniatures, in half size, but that’s another tale…
