I'm currently working on my own series of BiLingual Books for Kids wanting to learn their own/an Indian language, or for Indian kids wanting to learn English. These books are being designed for early learning (0-4 years). The artwork is of utmost importance and finding the right references for both Western and Indian audiences is challenging. However a finished version is expected to be complete by the end of 2011. These books will most likely be published some time next year.

The Sketchbook Project tour is now kicking off in Brooklyn as of the weekend of 19th of February, 2011. My sketchbook titled "Kavya's Magic Blanket Ride" and others will tour the US for several months.... For more details and to go to the shows check out

Another project, where an abridged version of "Kavya's Magic Blanket Ride" will feature is on a new iPad/iPhone app called UTales. It is a subscription-based app that is yet to be released where you can download and read children's stories by many amazing upcoming authors and illustrators. More details to come when the app is released.

Next, I'm working on learn-your-language books for kids.... watch this space!

You can now search for me in the illustrator lists on http://www.illustrationmundo.c. I might also be featured on popular blog featuring artists of Indian origin http://ofindianorigin.co.uk/. It's nice to slowly find people who like my work! Happy Holidays! Onwards and Upwards in 2011!

I just signed up to participate in the 2011 Sketchbook Project, run by the Brooklyn Art Library, NYC. Read more at http://www.arthousecoop.com/pr. The show will go on tour in Brooklyn, Chicago, Austin, Atlanta, Portland and San Fransisco and begins in March 2011. Super excited to get sketching!!!

I will be attending the Sunday session of the Spring NE SCBWI Conference and am looking forward to networking and meeting some of the Illustrators, especially more experienced ones who I can sponge some wisdom from!!!!

I will be teaching two classes for kids at the AVA Kids Studios in Lebanon, NH this spring. The first is a 5 session class where I will teach young artists to make 'Fashionista Crafts' - kids get to make or decorate simple accessories by drawing inspiration from summer fashions. This program is for kids aged 9-12 years. The second is a 3 session class on 'Sustainable Spring Crafts' for kids aged 4-6 years. For more information, please visit http://www.avagallery.org/
