I’m in a book!
http://ujwala.wordpress.com/2008/05/17/im-in-a-book/a book that he was producing for SoFoBoMo and I readily agreed. It was especially exciting as the book was to be about six artists and their art.

With many artists you see a recurring subject, model or colour something they keep coming back to. Do you have one? The reference for both these pieces have been taken by Anil Advani for his SoFoBoMo project and used with permission. Below I’ve tried a close crop of the digital painting made of Pagla.

Anil’s Space on the web
http://aniladvani.wordpress.comwe had a lot of laughs trying to set-up the lights and get him into position. He kept looking “skyward” and joked about how artists are supposed to have a vacant far-away look in their eyes for portraits. LOL! I gave up. But am posting one, on the SoFoBoMo Log page anyway. Shall try again, on Sunday next. The set-up portrait session for Zeba went pretty much the same way. She was very conscious of the camera and I could not distract her enough to make her relax. Juise tried, and had us in splits mostly. End of

First one then the second were brave enough to attempt the jump out of the nest and into the high branches. I’ve been watching out for the third, but there is no sign of it. Wonder what happened? Mother Bulbul gets very agitated as she spotted me on the balcony [even though I did my best to hide behind some shrubs] and was screeching and hopping around trying to get the

Sonargaon, in ruins
http://aniladvani.wordpress.com/2008/04/26/sonargaon-in-ruin...ornate carved doors and windows, full of rubbish and the homeless… pathetic but still beautiful. The old Hindu temples and the Havalis in a similar state of disrepair.

http://aniladvani.wordpress.com/2008/04/24/sofobomo-day-4/SoFoBoMo Day-4: Juise’s workbench. We had a power outage [one of several that we have every day], and I had just stepped into his small “office” and setup 2 SB800s to take some photos of the workspace.
