The word 'jugaad' came to our mind when we saw the story sent in by Muhammed Shafi. With minimal use of colours, a clean template and a 'flowing' narrative, find out how Muhammed's character battles the cyclonic winds he gets caught in.
On why he participated in this challenge, he says :
"I love doing illustrations for kids !! That is what excited me about this project the most, i have previously done some illustrations on walls for a small play school in my hometown. This project was very challenging but at the same time a lot of fun! Hope my work can bring a smile on some kids faces :)"Muhammed Shafi's Illustrations for the #6FrameStoryChallenge by Pratham Books
( When asked about himself, Muhammed said : "Fed on the creative juices from God's own country, I have an enormous passion for art. Whenever I get some time to spare, I fill these wide canvases . And at work (I work for a Bangalore based ad agency called nicheminds), I love to play with pixels on the Mac. I am an avid footballer and movie buff.)
