Across fifty watercolour prints, walk down memory lane to fondly reminisce a gentle, laid back city...a time when people walked everywhere and you stopped to wish...a place when tongas were summoned for long journeys and riding a cycle minus a kerosene oil lamp was serious crime. Recognize in each of Paul’s drawings, well known, old Bangalore landmarks - from schools and colleges, to churches and
theatres, bars and restaurants, tree-lined shaded avenues and graceful monkey topped bungalows - all remembered with lighthearted humour. Paul Fernandes is among Bangalore’s better known illustrators and cartoonists. He has illustrated many books, including ‘On a High Note’ - a slightly inebriated introduction to Western music; Peter Colaco’s ‘Bangalore’; and ‘Shine Board Arts’ - an authentic collection of signs of the times in India. Recent work also include the popular poster mural ‘Bang Bang Bangalore’; Sillycon City; The Ambassador of India; and a series of Shine Board’ posters which have sold thousands of copies across the world. This page is an endeavour to bring old Bangaloreans (and newer ones too!) together to chat about the good old times. It is also an invitation to visit aPaulogy, the gallery, in Bangalore.
