Kya karoon, I don't have enough time.
Tuesday was supposed to be a day off, but it wasn't. Friday was too, & Monday. & neither were.
My Tuesday practice was about brush pen strokes, fills & blends.
It was enough to show how to go:
gotta get out the pencils...
need to try the pastels on the official sketchbook paper...
gotta plan the styles, the characters & the storyline.
Been listening to The PropheC's Forever album on Spotify.
Been watching Dil Se on Hulu.
The confrontation between my culture and India's is at the core of my novel-to-be and the theme of this sketchbook.
My understanding of Hindi and Panjabi still grows organically, little by little.
My understanding of mores and body language has grown far beyond my initial understanding of my own limitations regarding these aspects of Hindustani culture.
Experiencing The PropheC & Dil Se tonight is re-drawing my own outline, to me.
It's what the sketchbook is about, will be about, after all.
