"Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time"  - Thomas Merton

I've been sketching, drawing and painting ever since the days I could remember. And sometime when I was about 15, I suddenly switched to portraits. I did quite a lot of sketches till I was in college. Then when I moved to Bangalore for job, taking time out became quite difficult. And when I started sketching again after a hiatus of 6 years in 2010, I noticed a significant change in my style.

I use a HB and a 6B pencil for sketching and use a paper or cloth to rub and create the shade.

I hope to dedicate a bit more time to this hobby this year :)
