Poetry Shots - High on Haiku and Three Line Poetry

About the Illustrator Neetu Malik considers illustrating this book, a joyous journey which she had never imagined she would travel and that too, as a senior citizen! She has been fond of sketching since childhood, a blissful phase of her life where her doting parents religiously took her to the then epic “Shankar’s On The-Spot” painting competition but she never did them proud by winning any prizes!! Life chugged along with studies taking priority culminating with an economics honours degree from LSR Delhi, leading to the logical banking career of over 25 years in the management cadre of the Union Bank of India. Off and on were phases of oil painting, some sketching, but nothing serious. This has been her first attempt at sharing with the world, her love for sketching brought or rather, pushed to the fore, by her daughter Vyomi. Through her explicit pen drawings, she has tried to capture the essence of each of the poems so that the reader can enjoy these poetry and haiku shots, in their entirety.
