Packaging design - JO DIKHTA HAI WOH BIKTA HAI

Dear friends and students here few of my packaging design work which I did for few of my Indian and International Client. While designing a package for any product, you have to concentrate on few things like:
*The packaging is literally the product identity.
*Packaging design has the primary goal to attract customers’ attention.
For this purpose, package designs cannot simply inform the customers, but also provoke feelings and communicate emotions. An effective packaging looks attractive, impresses with its creativity and is just nice to have on the shelf.
*Concentrate more on formulas like keep it simple and straight, Focus on typography, Branding and Positioning, Think Green, Hold the Consumer’s Attention, Consider it an Investment, Protect your product
Last but not the list, would like to quote a saying in Hindi language
JO DIKHTA HAI WOH BIKTA HAI which literally in English means, 'that which is seen is sold'...

PEACE ICON,

If you ask me if I'll leave you? "MY ANSWER IS NO"

It was a routine day. I was doing my work. Just then I received an SMS on my international number from my Indian friend Vijay solanki.

Itwas a pleasant surprise as I don't receive any SMSes on my international number from anywhere!

The hindi message read:
Kagaz ki kasti thi, pani ka kinara tha,
khelne ki masti, dil aawara tha,
kaha aa gaye ye samazdari ke daldal me,
woh nanha bachpan hi kitna pyara tha!This message triggered a thought and the result is this picture. Every body surely misses the innocent childhood years. The care-free days when even sailing a paper boat was thrilling. The paper boat was just not a toy, but a friend who taught us the emotions of life. The highs and lows, the attachment, every single element added to the experience. But as life grew upon us, the toy friend is forgotten!
Haathon Mein Thi Ek Kaagaz Ki Naav
Kaisi Thi Dosti Kaisa Tha Pyaar
Paani Ki Lehron Par Thi Savar
Rakhti Dosti Tab Bhi Barkarar...
Aagey Badhneka Chalta Raha Safar
Hum Bhi Chaltey Rahey Raahon Mein Magar
Beh Gaye Rishton Ke Wo Bhaav
Jaane Kahan Kho Gayi Meri Kaagaz Ki Naav...Therefore, I want to tell you my friends, family and students who have always been my friends....
If you ask me if I'll leave you,
My answer is No!!!

I am more than fortunate to have had so many wonderful friends. They don't only inspire me but mold my thoughts and encourage me to pursue challenging tasks. I owe my success to friends for their wishes as much as I owe it to God's blessings. God leaves you alone on this planet to live, survive and touch lives, but friend, stays with you lives with you make your lives cherish-able.

Thank you Friends!

Melcom-Valentine Window Display-2011 Ghana,West Africa

Love, definitely is an art and art glorifies love!


Art has always been a fascination for me. Be it painting, music, drama or any attractive vibrant creation. I get pulled into it. Thus writing for Rajesh Nakar- Visual Merchandiser, Interior Designer, Artist and a personal inspiration, also for whom I earlier wrote Aberrant is indeed a pleasure.

Currently in Ghana, West Africa, and lending his services to Melcom , a No. 1 departmental store having more than 15000 products under one roof, Rajesh has come up with yet another pleasing window display for Melcom's Kaneshie branch (Melcom plus)that has instantly evoked a brand image for the company. Brand image is always unique and one that sets them apart from competitors and ignites a positive vibes among the customers.
‘Pamper Your Valentine’, thus seem to be clearly fitting the bill. With the able inputs from Marketing head, Raja and his own creative flow, this concept seems apt for the upcoming Valentine’s Day! When I asked him online, how did he conceptualize the whole thing? How did he manage to express it so easily and in a simple, non-congested way? He said,
“The answer is ‘simplicity’ itself”. I always use one formula for any creation of mine, and that is KISS formula.”KEEP IT SIMPLE AND STRAIGHT”. He continued, “We as humans are always attracted towards beauty. Add simplicity and soothing colours to it & you have your job done. Also, having no restrictions and a clear thought from the department, led me work beautifully”.
As we can see, he clearly has worked wonders. Red, according to me, conjures well on different emotions like love, poetry, beauty and passion. This display has no other colour as magnificent as Red. Thus, the concept of only using red to express love with poetic affection, ‘Pamper Your Valentine’ for your dear girlfriend/wife is simply impressive.
The line ‘Pamper Your Valentine’ against red background convey it best - the message of "I love you"- and for me speaks loud of the care and passionate love that we have for loved ones. Having seen this, I strongly believe that every body’s search for an ultimate surprise this coming season of love should end at this beautiful store. Or May I say the quest for the best, and most enchanting gift begin from this glorifying art work.
Love, definitely is an art and art glorifies love!

Colored Pencil Portrait (Realistic Art) :

Here is my recent REALISTIC PORTRAIT that may inspire you to say...LETS DO SOMTHING LIKE THIS.
I have always said “NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE IN THIS WOLRD”.
Soooo, What you are waiting for???? LETS START..
There is no one way to do things, particularly RIGHT....but you can find the way that’s RIGHT for you.
Remember don’t be afraid to EXPERIMENT with any painting you decide to make.
I’ve been asked many times from my students and clients “Sir how can you sketch so realistic?”
And my answer is always:

" PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE, and did I forget to mention PRACTICE?

MAA KHODIYAR painting by me- oil on canvas

This is India’s first ever painting of MAA KHODIYAR in sitting position.
and through MAA KHODIYARS blessings I am the luckiest person in this world who got a chance too paint this concept.
while designing this painting my idea/concept or belief is only that wherever this paining/photograph rich directly or indirectly, MAA KHODIYAR will sit in that place permanently.

The right hand in this painting raised for blessing symbolizes her generosity.
MAA KHODIYAR rules over day and night. She rules over land and water. She rules over mind and heart. She chose a crocodile as her vehicle as I showed in my painting.

Her relation to her bhakts can only be compared by a mother caring for her children.
Words fall short of competence to illustrate the divinity and prowess of MAA KHODIYAR.
JAI MAA KHODIYAR.

Colored Pencil Portrait (Realistic Art) :

I used photo reference for this particular portrait, I just quickly sketched out the simple outline of the face right onto the Handmade colored green paper, I didn't need to do a lot of erasures, since the face was made up from reference image.
Two main things to remember with colored pencil is layering, and starting out with light tones. Also, have a sharp pencil tip at all times.
Lightly and carefully, start laying down the general tones of the portrait. Start with light tones first. Do not get messy, or make large, loose strokes. Keep your pencil sharp, and let the tip glide over the surface of the paper. Do not dig down and lay a dark, rich tone yet. It's too soon for that.
When you have drawn and rendered the majority of the face's lighter and more subtle tones, start to lay down the darker, richer and more saturated areas of the portrait (for instance, dark hair, red lips, bright colored or dark colored clothing, darkest shadows of the face, etc.). To get these colors sufficiently rich and saturated, gradually begin to bear down harder with your colored pencils, making stronger and darker pencil strokes. These strong lines are the most difficult to erase, which is why you should wait until you are almost finished with the portrait to put them in.

Some basic things to remember when drawing in colored pencil:- Keep your pencils sharp most of the time!
- Start drawing lightly, and carefully. Don't start laying down dark, rich colors right away.
- Keep the paper surface clean. Don't let any colored pencil "crumbs" stick to the drawing surface Carefully brush them away, before they smear or streak on the drawing.
- Use a kneaded rubber eraser to lighten up or erase areas. Don't use the same eraser that you use for graphite or charcoal, however. Have special kneaded rubber eraser set aside for your colored pencil work.
- Final goal of your portrait is, make it more realistic.
