Red Elephant (work in progress)

Here is what I have been upto : what a year it has been, though my blog does not reflect this, it surely has been one of the most happiest, incredible and all consuming year for me and at the end of it all I can feel is the intense sense of gratitude. Looking forward to 2016!

 The Kitchen

My grandmother cooking for her very large family, The food was usually vegetarian, simple and piping hot, since my grandfather was a vegetarian and could not stand spice, quite opposite to my grandmother who would eat her rice with fiery chilies and loved meat. My grandfather was always served at the table, but my grandmother always preferred the floor.

The Backyard

 This is the backyard of the house, Still figuring out the style and treatment for a very rough idea of a book based on the life of my grandparents
