Architoons 1

Life as an architect has it's ups and downs, so it's best to look at the funny side. This post will be the first in a series of cartoons about architecture- themes will be general but some would be more appropriate to Singapore context.

Indiana Jones Sri Lanka style?

In 1982, Steven Spielberg and George Lucas filmed Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom on locations in Sri Lanka. More recently Dr. Gyan Fernando embarked on his own expedition- details of which can be found at:http://gyanf.blogspot.com/2012/03/getambe-jones-and-lost-railway-halt.html

Elephant cenus

The Government of Sri Lanka decided to have a census of elephants in the island. That is, to count them. I'm not sure what the idea behind this was, but to me it seemed to throw up some humorous possibilites.........

Sketches of Pillaiyar

These sketches are by 4B pencil on Daler Rowney Arteco paper.
The Hindu diety Ganesh (Vignesh, Ganapathy are some other names) is thought of as the son of Siva and Parvathy in the Hindu pantheon. In Tamil he is known as Pilliayar- pillai meaning child. So I have shown him as a toddler doing the things that children of that age would do... and some other activity as well.

In the Tamil pantheon, Siva and Parvathy have a younger son, Murugan, so here are the boys playing together.

Here he is getting a scolding from his mother....

.........but boys will be boys, even if you are the son of Gods!

Test and first

As always, he's the first.
