Illustrations in Tamil publications
April 2010 - latest update December 2011

Illustration to stories, articles and jokes makes reading much more enjoyable.  In this section I have attempted to collect and present a few works of these great artists.  I am sure the copyright of the works rests with the artists.  So, please do not use the images for commercial/non-commercial purposes. I have put them up in my site only because I enjoyed their artistry so much.  Those who are familair with the works can recall happy memories of reading these magazines/books and the less familiar can get to know of our great artists' works and style.
