Happy Diwali!

Pixar artist, and author of Little India, Sanjay Patel was commissioned by the New York Times to create an editorial illustration about Diwali, India’s “festival of lights.” Unfotunately due to the recent bombings in Delhi, the editors thought the piece would seem trivial and decided not to run it. Today marks the third (and primary) day of Diwali’s 5-day celebration, and I’m happy to post Sanjay’s illustration here on Drawn! Click the image for full size, and be sure to visit Sanjay’s site.
