![]() ![]() PK: Gosh! To be honest I really can’t think of what else I would have been. What would you have been if you weren’t one? ![]() To see that someone had actually published something I had drawn was really thrilling (to tell you the truth, it still is!). They very kindly gave me my first break by assigning me this really endearing story called I’m so sleepy, written by Radhika Chadda. In 2002, just before my final year, I sent some of the work I had done to Tulika books on a whim. As a result of that, I think I just decided to go on a holiday a little more than often. It was almost like the holiday before all the hard work that goes into animation begins. ![]() ![]() That’s the stage I enjoyed immensely because I could try out all sorts of crazy illustrations to ideate without having to worry about the practicalities of how to make the drawings move. I took up animation as a discipline and part of the process of making animation films involved making conceptual art for it. PK: I started illustrating in 1999, while at National Institute of Design. KG: When and how did you begin illustrating? Tell us about your first big break? (Sentimentality here is most welcome). Gianai, a journalist who spends sleepless nights dreaming of writing books and wakes up envying The Morning People. Priya illustrated the soon to be published Maya Saves the Day by Meera Nair. Everybody loves Priya Kuriyan’s art, and a good number of people love Priya Kuriyan. ![]()
