Paris
What better way to represent Paris than by its famous food and its iconic Croissant? Crisp, buttery and flaky. Served with a little pot of jam. I didn't even need a reference for this one. The happy memories of a holiday were enough :-)

MARRAKESH
Some of the Chumma Draw subjects are difficult given the many possibilities combined with the time constraints. This subject is one of them.The challenge is to come up with the simplest and most effective solution.
I arrived at this after stuffing up numerous other options and inwardly swearing at Rajni Sir for choosing this. (I would have liked him to choose the subject 'Fish' everyday). Finding this solution got my brain working furiously though. Good exercise :-)
Two elements that symbolize Marrakesh in nearly all the pictures I've seen are the beautiful arched windows and the colour blue. I've combined both of them here in this minimal drawing.
Marrakesh.
Marrakesh???( I dont know anything. But i searched and found something intrersting to me . so done a quick sketch using ink and posting it)
