NEJAL MEHTA ART

Human beings!!  Actions. Gestures.  Figurative drawing is one thing I never get bored of. Just a few random strokes, quick sketches to capture real people on paper is my favorite subject to draw. A sketch of a human posture can be interpreted in so many ways, so differently. And no one would ever know what was running in that subject's mind, what has that person gone through in life which gives us a chance to think and interpret!  Here are some sketches I made with not too many details, random and quick.  I love this and want to do this for the rest of my life. Go people !! Chase that one thing you want to do the most. Keep doing it till you excel and feel happy about doing that. :D 

When the whole concept of the garage sale came up in our art school, the first question popped up was, “what do I put up!” The idea was to come up with some simple products mostly made out of waste where the cost had to be as minimum as possible. It was a do it yourself project in a way. I wanted to try some lamps. Bang on! What better chance to experiment. ;) My inspiration came from the old cafes where different style of lighting is used, something innovative. I started with a walk around the old streets of Pune where you get to see a lot of trash and old, broken, torn out and worn out pieces of everything one can think. In fact, every city has a market of its own where you could find treasure like this. There were gunnies filled with dirty old alcohol bottles, and so many. Any brand you ask for. :D That was it. Picked up some bottles, some lights and started. There were some old cups and saucers laying which also got a new life! Turned them into little hanging lamps.  Cu
