Wall Paintings!


The pictures you see on the right are wall paintings made by my bro n me (primarily by the former :))

They are life sized and made by hand!! I'll explain the method used and you can use it to create own masterpiece. If you think you need great artistic talents to pull this off, then you are wrong. Trust me if i could do it, then so can you! :)

The process:

1. Take a black and white printout of the image that you want to paint on a transparent A4 plastic sheet. (The one we guys used in between our BTech Project reports.)

2. Choose an appropriate wall where you want to paint it.

3. Use anything u can get from which you can hang (or make it stand) the picture at a resonable height (waist high would be fine) at a distance of about 3 feet from the wall.

4. Take a bulb and put in a box (a shoe box would do fine.) Make a small hole at one end of the box through which you can get a point light.

5. Darken the room and place the light behind the picture so that you get its image on the wall!

6. Use a pencil and outline the picture.

7. Remove the whole apparatus and now colour it up!!


Here I have showed a couple of drawings I have done, as i make more I'll upload their pictures here!

If anyone does follow these steps or has any improvements then please mention it in the comments

Enjoy !

The poem game ..

Its this game I played once with a friend of mine. The rules are pretty simple and the result is quite colorful. All you have to do is write a poem; you write one line then the other person writes the next line and so on.. So the next time you are getting bored in office use gtalk to get poetic!

Here is our result,(All good lines and big words are hers :))

~~~~~~~~~ The Rising ~~~~~~~~~

In horrors of darkness, bright sunlight evades,
Bursting through the cracks darkness prevails,
The abyss of emotion this journey creates,
Trying to fill the void, but alas! Darkness darkens and doesn't vacate.

Lost in translation, fear engulfs,
Transcending through time, like empty skulls,
A feeling so pristine, nothing but, visceral,
Hoping with belief for life's a sabbatical.

From chthonic depths, rises the soul,
Beyond reason it searches for thee, thy light is what brings darkness to heel,
The powerful beauty unleashed on the world to feel,
It cleanses the aura making nefarious forces kneel!

Learning's of life, from darkness to light, is god's way,
Awakening the dormant spirit, from a world so grey,
Comes from within, it's the mind that's got to slay,
For a beautiful life, we have to live each day!
