Synthetic Ecology: Frequently used terms by ArtScienceBangalore - this is the book I co-illustrated with Akshitta Kohli for our team - ArtScienceBangalore, that took part in the iGEM competition at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, USA in 2010. The book has been added to the Asian Art Archive and the University of Michigan Library.

Character development
Trying out Ink and Pen on paper.
