When I studied 11th, amma asked me if I wanted to study architecture. I drew a straight line and she said, “Ok forget it”. Choosing computer science over biology was an easy decision for me, for I was scared of drawing.
Today, as a data scientist building credit strategies, I do critical thinking all day my work day. To my own surprise, the hobby I resorted to unwind is sketching & painting.
I find so much joy in the process of following the tool, spreading the color and drawing patterns. This is the time when I don’t think and just be. I continue to read books and still fond of listening to music as I have always had. However, the calm that I have started experiencing through art is nothing that I have experienced before. Art is my meditation.
This post has the compilation of my works for the Bharathiyar poem, “Naan (I)”.
Of course, from the pictures one can see that I still don’t do straight lines 😉

Very beautiful and meaningful paintings. And editing is pakka perfect (I empathize u here for those few micro second differences that u must have struggled with, to make lyrics sit at right nodes, sustain with images and music) . Song selection is great. Waiting for next project.
Very nice Subha, well-coordinated song and pictures, can feel the "Aham Brahmasmi" philosophy in all pictures. I feel the soulfulness and the I-sole-tion of the souls in your drawings and the poem.
The state of 'flow' is what you are talking about. You feel yourself a different person being carried away by the waves of time, a consciously unconscious state. The more you delve into this state the more alive you feel. I'm happy that you have gotten addicted to this kind of pleasure. 6 months hard work is showing in every single snippet of the video! Well done inmo.
Never ever knew that you had this talent. Simply superb and amazing. You are a multi-talented personality
