Pencil Jammers
A bunch of drawers that draw.
8 Valley School Sketches
Please SCROLL to the bottom of this post to see seven more sketches. You may also find them here: One, Two, Three, Four, Five(this one seems to have disappeared in the main thread - photobucket gremlins!), Six, Seven.
Many thanks to Pencil Jammers for organizing this trip... seeing the pictures itself is so very inspiring - esp for people who live far away! And to the wonderful PJ'ers who made it all a huge success by participating. I couldn't help myself but go on a sketching spree. I'm totally grateful to Sridhar Comaravalli and Paranirajan for their wonderful pictures, which I've used as reference for my studies. I hope I'm forgiven for not asking their permission first - I was in a headlong rush!
All are on A3 size paper, using a combination of conte, watercolor (mainly for BG washes), watersoluble pencils.
Thanks for looking, please view in FULL SIZE

Okay, this is quite an old thread, but thank you for reviving and commenting upon it - Jagadish, Prabha and Mukund (my apologies for the very late response).
Prabha, that sketch of yours seems to have disappeared - probably a corrupted file in the image server. So I'll re-embed it below. As regards grace and class... well, all I did was study the original, so full credit is due where it came from :)

Edit: Thanks Rumnita for the kind fave!
I think its time for this one to 'sink'... I'm kind of embarrassed to see its still up here. Thanks Manu, I'm so glad you found something useful in this :)

Aww... Anil, you absolutely must proceed with your sketches. I totally love to see the sense of build up in your work, each is like a story unto itself, there is so much to learn! Thank you for your kind comment :) Oh, I had no idea Maitreya was related to you... son? The pleasure, as said previously, was alllll mine!

This is an incredible (I use the word knowingly) series of sketches Dada! When I saw the superb series of photographs from all the other jammers, I planned to do some sketches too. But you almost blocked me! But I will work up the courage to do it soon! AND keep your superb works as the aim - not for copying! Many thanks - no counting how many times I have seen them.
And Maitreya has been honoured by being sketched too!
Many thanks for the pleasure Dada

Thank you so much Akhila, Nicola, Asha, Dinesh and Sridhar for your kind comments. And also to Nandita and Rashmi for the faves... I hope no one is left out in my gratitude list :)
Sridhar(Ji) - the pleasure is all mine! It'd be an honor to be on your FB page :)
Dinesh Sir - with your talent at 'twisting' reality, I can't wait for you to try out a few portraits. Remember Prabha's brilliant cartoony modifications?! Thanks to YOU and the others, for making this memorable for me.
Akhila - @ 'Pro'... being 'pro' has both its pros and cons. Although, I must say, the feedback from fellow-artists make up for the cons :)
Ahh, I'm glad you've already located Sridhar's photos, Asha. Thanks for asking though.

Excellent work Prosenjit. I am so happy for you that my clicks have helped you in your creations. Truly awesome. I just loved the pic of mine and am going to post it in FB. I hope you would not mind that! Hats off. Wishing you the very best in your artistic journey!
