He was asked to work as art director and illustrator for this commission from a glass company in India who wanted to promote the Indian characters and visuals so typical of the country. Choosing The Mughal King of India as the main focus of the artwork, Shailesh's final piece will look stunning on the glassware.

San Francisco Scarf

thebolditalic.com

Jennifer Maravillas's collaboration with The Bold Italic has resulted in this beautiful silk scarf based on her vibrant map of San Francisco. "Jennifer was inspired by "the many colors to be seen around the city: the cold hues of the Pacific, the shades of succulents, wild and overgrown hidden trails, the elusive sunlight, newly painted boats, rainbow salt ponds, bridges, painted Victorians, patterned tiles of taquerias, produce stacked and waiting, the hippies and the hipsters, people watching people watching people, silver rooftops, the blur of bicycles passing, and of course, the gray fog." (The Bold Italic Shop).  You can buy the scarf here.
