Burans Arts :: Artworks of Gaurav Nawani

This site is not an attempt at digital portfolio, It represents my hobbies and interests in the field of digital arts. I have been using Blender and Gimp for work from quite some time. Both apps are best in the GNU/Linux world and are comparable to their commercial counterparts. I also use Inkscape for vector drawings.
The work platform is based on Linux OS 'Ubuntu 6.06'.
Current hardware: Sempron 2500, 512Mb, GeForce5200FX 128MB-DDR.

My brother is a open source enthusiast himself. Check out his pretty strong chess engine Natwarlal 2300+ ELO. Also check out GTK-Scare a front end runner for ADRIFT games.
