Doodle Art by - Ishu Sharma

 



The Artist's Voice:


"I started doodling when I didn't even know what I drew  was called a doodle; for me, it was just drawing random patterns. It didn't require much effort or attention: I could listen to the teacher talk about electro magnetic field while I was drawing patterns on the last few pages of my physics notebook. But as happens with most of the things, when school ended, this too stopped. I would draw when I had to (for projects and activities) but it wasn't like before. After 5 years, I surprisingly, started again. I love colors and being surrounded with colors. So, when I saw the plain white walls of my hostel room, out of boredom, I decided that by the time I leave the MBA college, one wall of my room would be filled with colors. I couldn't paint the walls as it was against the rules, so I started doodling and pasting the doodles on the wall. Although the objective was to cover the wall with colors, I started enjoying the process. I realized how much it helped my mental well-being. I am an over thinker; my mind seldom stays calm but when I draw, it feels like, I can control my thoughts. As a kid, I may not have realized it but  as an adult, often times, we find it difficult to appear sane in the eyes of others. Don't we? This became one of the few things that kept me sane. I couldn't completely dress the wall with my drawings before I had to leave the hostel room. College had ended but this time, doodling didn't stop. I promised myself that  I won't let this habit of mine be forgotten; I would draw regularly and religiously. This is why I started my Instagram page, The doodle diet; to be regular and consistent. Doodling is no longer a hobby or  even a passion. It is something that makes me comfortable; that helps me take care of my overthinking brain; something that I know, is always in my control; something I know I cannot ever mess up. I don't care or think about thinking twice or not making mistakes when i draw; I feel free. Although I like the validation that I get online, it is mostly the journey, the process of making something creative with the not so creative thoughts that I enjoy more.."

9 3/4 and not a Fantasy.

  9 3/4 and not a Fantasy? Harry Potter reference is it? But not a fantasy? What is it about? Curious? Good.  Here we are, with the launch of our theme, for our blog, MusArt. What does the theme say about us? Let us give you a quick insight! A full packed, 9 day content, with 3 art forms, from the 4 of us! The brain behind this page, had nothing to do with art, but simply four students, pursuing MBA from IBS Hyderabad. Two years of grill, with a different flavour this time because of the pandemic, hasn't been much hard, because we were surrounded by art, everyday, and everywhere. The lockdown has taken a toll on our mental health and with all the talk shows, and articles a\on mental health, it is definitely not easy to tackle it overnight. It takes times, and happens with ease. We have seen so many individuals building something new with the beginning of a new day. From their paintings, to experimenting with flavours, we have seen it all. Online platform has not just become a ...

Art by - Srishti Bansal

  Artist's Voice: "While my undergraduate degree is in Commerce, I have always identified myself as an artist. Subsequently, I have presented my work in several small venues. Most notably, I presented at Galerie Metanoia in Paris, and the Delhi Lalit Kala Academy. Art is an avenue for me to stay creative and connected which is why I try to paint the inside out. I embrace my zeal to unravel the marvelous connect that we all have with ourselves and the world. There is a continuous need to search deeper within myself, which has led me through a wonderful journey of self-expression and finding my reality beyond what society or circumstances impose. I do not paint what I see, but what I feel. Sometimes, I use my fingers to paint. It helps me connect better with my artwork. There is no specific method that I deploy to this apparent madness on canvas. I am led by the language of my paints, of my own pains, of the process of painting, and everything else in between. For me, it is not ...
