Manigandan Parthasarathi – Featured Pencil Artist 1-18-10

Manigandan Parthasarathi (Mani) comes to this blog through LinkedIn. A Software Development Engineer at Invensys, Mani is also passionate about pencil drawing.

“I believe it was my 15th year when I realised my horrible handwriting was bruising my happy schooling days. I should actually feel happy for this, as I never expected this would spark some talent within me. I worked hard to get my letters straight, and eventually got them too. But as a side benefit, I found that I liked drawing cartoon characters.”

“But it was the appreciation and encouragement from people around me which gave me the idea that I could draw too. My shcooling days were tough, and I refrained myself from deviating my concentration from studies. Even at that, I never missed any chance to spend time in drawings if I found a little free time.”

“I’m still clueless on what inspired me to do my pencil shading work. Basically I like presenting my friends with my drawings, thus slowly I improved my drawing skills. My goal is to continue expanding my abilities in the great field of Art.” Mani on LinkedIn.com.
