Maheswari Janarthanan, Illustrator.

3yrs. 300 posts. That's how old this blog is right now. And now with the numbers aside, bringing you one of my facebook discoveries. Maheswari Janarthanan is a brilliant illustrator. I love her quirky sense of humour that shines through most of her art. I just have to smile when I see her heart filled clouds, haloed fireflies and busy angels. This girls heart is in her work.Take a peek.


This is my favourite. Its called 'a beautiful mind' and has elephant parachutes, candy trains, icecream clouds and kites that fly from the moon.

Purple funk.
And here below is the most endearing shiva temple I have seen drawn. its called 'Faith'. I like :)
And for those who've not had enough, here is her blog: paperplanes and her flickr stream.

Absolutely incredibly gorgeous! I went shopping for kids books the other day after a very long time and was so amazed at the quality of writing and illustrations out there! Artists like Maheshwari and Shilo Shiv Suleiman are really creating waves!

Lovely work. I especially love the last one and the illumination from within the temple. I am wondering what material is used to create these illos and whether some of it is digitally done. I'm off to visit her blog.
