Pencil Drawing of Lasith Malinga

Lasith Malinga. Every Sri Lankan knows who this guy is. He is one of the most popular cricket players in Sri Lanka. This guy has an unique way of bowling and also wears a hair style of his own. Recently he had some issues with the media which lead to some bad criticism. Some hardcore Sri Lankan cricket fans still hate him for that incident. But I have have to say, that Mr. Lasith Malinga is one of a kind and a very talented fast bowler in the modern day cricket world.

This is me trying to draw Malinga. 2B and 6B pencils were used for this attempt. Enjoy!!!!!

My Experiments with Ink and Water

For these drawings I used Indian ink (which I used when I was a child at school for writing). I am still learning the art and finding my way to master a style of my own. So here goes.....

Digital Sketching with my phone

Mobile phone. What can I say...It has come a long way. Now we use phones not only to call or to text, but for different different purposes. I have a phone too. An android phone. Well...as an ordinary guy in Sri Lanka, owning an "android" phone (or an iphone/ ipad) is still a big deal. Even when it is one of the most basic android phones you can get. So I am a proud owner of an android phone called the hTC Wildfire S. :) Anyway, the phone has a 3.5"(something) display. I installed an app called "Sketch n Draw". A cool drawing app I enjoy a lot.

In this app, what you get is a blank canvas, some cool brushes and colors. Your fingers have to do all the hard work since you are dealing with a very small display. Anyway, enough with my bad English. Here are

some of my work. Hope you guys will like them.

P.S. You will see the word "Dhanushka" (well..my name) in most of the drawings. I add that with a photo editing tool. Its got nothing to do with the drawing..;)
