Geetanjali Design & Art

Industrial Design Center, IDC , IIT Bombay.  I had the most precious and unforgettable moments of my life at my design school,  IDC, Bombay . Those were the days of relentless deadlines, where day and night dissolved into a singular focus—my project and the lively atmosphere of the classroom.  The vibrant activities at the Main Ground and my sneaky class bunks for sports events added a spark of adventure to those times. I cherished my bicycle rides, feeling like a free bird gliding under the green, towering, shady trees. Cycling through the Infinity Corridor at night felt magical, especially when fate led to an unexpected encounter with a professor on the very day I decided to bunk. :P Below is the digital sketch created by me for Students work website Home page for "ABHIKALP" This is the sketch of how the  Design school  in Oct,  2010.

Board Game Design: An strategic game design for 4 to 6 players at a time. This game was prepared in just 15 days time with a challenge of making a working prototype. We a team of three students - Vineeta, Chitra and Me, had a fun time while making and testing the game with the users.  Through user testing we get one of the valuable design ideas which was further incorporated in the game. This game is played by anyone but is most enjoyable by teenager, as it involves planning with an element of excitement of the buzzer time constraints. Some of more pics

Oil On canvas Title : Two Sisters "Two Sisters" is my second oil on canvas in 3nd year of arts college. I am very excited to do this. I am thinking of painting it like Van Gogh Style. My style is quite much changed from the first one. I think its the after effects of learning great artists works and style.  I was a bit more confident in this one and put oil colors with more of freedom, actually all over the place which was quite unexpected.

"Heaps of life" Oil on canvas  48" by 38" inch   I painted this work in my final year .This work is is in continuation to one of my oil paintings .In this painting also I want to show the heap of burden or the chaos the lines are creating on which our city life or the concrete jungle is situated.     

Watercolor on Paper "Under the Shade" A Composition Using the Wash Technique How Does It Work? This painting method is called the flat water wash technique . To use this method, start with slightly cold-pressed paper (such as Canson sheets) with a light texture . Secure the paper by taping its edges to a board. After sketching your composition, use thick paint for the initial layer. Once the painting is dry, rinse it gently under cold water to remove any excess paint. Use  a  round brush during this process to ensure smooth transitions. The result will be a soft,  tinted color scheme, where you can further enhance the piece by adding layers of detail to create depth. This technique offers a soothing effect, with the colors blending harmoniously across the composition. However, it requires careful planning to determine which areas should remain blank or be filled with solid color. This process encourages intentionality, as it involves iterative refinement until the desir...

Sleeping beauty Half imperial, Baby in pencil shading  While my nephew was sleeping, I made a quick sketch and later rendered it with shading. I loved seeing the peace and tranquility on his face, even though he gives his mother a hard time.

Lady portrait Half imperial sheet, Portrait in Pencil  In college the Models used to sit and we have to take our positions around him so as to capture his expressions in which ever view we got.I still remember the students use to come as soon as possible to capture a nice seat with respect to the model other wise the whole day went in fighting for seats but was fun.I did this Portrait in second year.

I done this in my second year of college in cross hatching .It was the first work where I came to know I am patient as much as unstable. I remember one thing that I really find it very boring to work in drapery part but still manages to complete it with the same passion.

Winter in the Woods    Pencil on Paper, A4 Sheet     During my first year at Art College, I was learning about different textures, and I’ve always been fascinated by the textures present in nature. This particular piece emerged after studying and observing the textures around me in the natural world. It took shape on paper, inspired by the feeling of th e harsh & cold winters of Delhi. I enjoyed sketching the textures, capturing the barren land and the surrounding environment.  At that point in my life, I had no idea I can be an Artist ! :)

  Study of basic shapes!
