Apologies to the many Flickrites - all the images are theirs and they are fabulous, but I lost the links. If your image is here, please tell me, I'd love to attribute it!! Thanks for reading, look forward to feedback.
This 36 pages free eBook is a collection of 17 practical exercises for artists. I have learnt some of them over the years and designed some to fulfil my own needs. I am a painter, so most of these exercises are visual ones. However, many of them do not require specific artistic skills and are suitable for anyone regardless of their age or level of artistic ability.
These exercises are varied and you probably already own most of the required materials.
You can use them as warm-up before you start a new project or as a way to explore new avenues. I also hope teachers will use these exercises in their classes as they are great fun.

Ux design summit guarding against an us vs them mentalityJohn Murray
“They have no idea how to work with a real design team.” We’ve all heard or said something like that about people on our product teams, especially developers. While that’s a natural response to a breakdown in communication or a road bump during implementation, over time it can create an “Us vs. Them” mentality that does more harm than good. So how do we avoid scratching the itch. How do we keep avoiding giving in to the cynicism? As a design leader, how do you balance your team’s frustrations and continue to motivate them to deliver quality user experiences?
This presentation was given to NY Media Center's Creative>>Founder Lab in June 2016 to help budding entrepreneurs identify the key driving mission behind their business ideas.
This is first in a series of 4 slide decks and lectures. Here we discuss, examine and parse the concepts of management and leadership. What are the differences? Can they be learned or are leaders simply born with innate talents.

Tranqui lateral (ie express yourself)
1. IE APPLICATION
EXPRESS YOURSELF
Show us an activity you enjoy doing. Tell us how you think it contributes
to your personal and professional development
Shuvojit Sengupta
2. Every individual needs to carry out an activity or a set of activities to keep themselves
engaged in this world of targets, deadlines and obligations. But unlike the day to day chores,
these should symbolize delight, tranquility, productivity and personal satisfaction. It is
unquestionably, a pre-requisite for every aspiring and ambitious individual to dedicate a
minuscule slice of time to themselves.
4. I enjoy reading Comics and Conceptualizing. These two go hand in hand. The world
of comics is a parallel universe altogether where creativity is timeless and
conceptualizing helps me stretch my mind to boundless imagination. I have a knack
towards attaching intellectual meaning to random objects and even thoughts. If I see
an abstract image, then I would associate it with a print ad concept for a company or
give it a different meaning altogether by pinpointing its specific feature. I have
named it ‘Tranqui-lateral’ as this activity defines serenity and involves a lot of
lateral thinking.
5. • I believe that any activity which fulfills the duties of making someone happy, calm
and vibrant should be carried out on a daily basis. Having stated that, I can
proudly say that reading comics, conceptualizing and sketching helps me in every
sphere of life. It contributes significantly to the growth of my personal and
professional life.
• My brain is incapable of remaining idle for too long. It must remain engaged in
something pleasing and fruitful. When I am at home, I read and sketch. Or google
random images and attach a meaning to them. The following slides contains a few
examples of conceptualizing on abstract pictures and converting them into print
advertisements. Few of them have received critical acclaim from several corporate
heads in the field of marketing and media.
17. Contribution to personal & professional
development
Creativity: I believe that every form of work requires creativity and innovation
in some form or another. Otherwise monotony creeps in and everything seems
dull. Conceptualization, reading comics and sketching infuses creativity in my
personal and professional life. I am able to contribute new ideas frequently at
work and that keeps me going.
Positivity: We all need vibrancy and brightness in our lives. A successful person
must possess the quality of being optimistic in life. There are several instances
where we encounter hindrances in our professional careers and personal lives
but that should never let us down. We should be oozing with positivity to tackle
every problem with a smile. I am an optimistic person and I have dealt every
hindrance with a positive attitude and an ever smiling face. I hope to continue
doing so, in the future.
18. Inspirational and Competitive: The world of comics is bursting with infinite
opportunities. The stories, plots, knowledge and teachings inspire me to achieve my
goals, live my dreams and leave footprints in the sands of time. Inspiration is a
significant factor in fostering competitiveness.
• The hunger to achieve more and more drives me to push and test myself to the
maximum potential. Same goes for conceptualization. When I feel that I am unable to
attach any substantial meaning to an abstract picture, I do not give up. I continue to
push myself until I have reached a stage where the outcome is exceptional or brilliant.
Compatibility and Networking: Everyone has a certain wavelength which may or may
not match with the rest. It becomes easier for me to adjust to my surrounding and the
people involved. I am able to connect with people from all walks of life. This further,
augments networking and communication. I gel well with a lot of people with different
and striking ideologies and in turn, I meet several individuals with varied interests and
diverse knowledge. As a result , I am friends with an awesome bunch of people who
have influenced my personal and professional life.
19. Leadership: In order to lead others, one must learn to govern and inspire himself
through his principles. Once that is achieved, then leading others to the right and
successful path does not seem a challenge anymore.
• The world of comics has several leaders like superman, batman, captain
America, Professor Charles Xavier etc. who have inspired people to take a stand
in life, to do something worthy and meaningful. This quality is essential in the
corporate domain as well.
Team-work: This is another crucial aspect for an overall development. I have
seen and read the biographies of several creative heads, marketing leaders in the
world who have time and again mentioned the importance of team work.
• No matter how talented you are, without team-work, one cannot succeed or even
grow. People like David Ogilvy, Charles Saatchi, Philip Kotler and several such
greats from the creative field have highlighted the significance of team-work
through their professional life.
• Similar theory is followed in the world of comics wherein team-work becomes a
quintessential factor to win against opponents.
20. I believe in striking the perfect balance of harmony between personal and professional life.
So far, it has worked out for me in the best possible way. Activities varies from one
individual to another. Few may share the same activity to grow in their personal and
professional lives, while for others, it may be an altogether different thought and task to
make themselves cheerful and develop in every sphere.
“Life is nothing without a little bit of creativity and concepts.” Yes, I coined that line and
even if I am not a celebrated individual, I am well aware of the potential inside me to be a
part of an elite group one day.
