mom
Magic...throughout my life i read fairy tales and believed in magic. i am now ashamed to even to tell that at one point of my life i asked god...yup prayed fervently to god...to give me a genie.
now years later, i have realized god had given me a magical genie to me, i just had hard time recognizing her...my mom .
i had a very normal childhood...no major incidences to show that my mother is a goddess that she is...my mom a professor in philosophy.. is a very normal mom. she scolded me when i did something wrong...praised me when i did something good...even tried to show off me for my little achievements.
one of the major things that i learned from her...is to try to be a good human being. unlike me she doesn`t fuss about small things...she tries to forgive and move on when she is hurt and she doesnt sing it everywhere when she helps.
another important lesson i am still trying to learn from her is not to give money too much value.She is a professor ...and lots of students come to her for advice or help in the subject. in this age,when money is everything, she believes in the idea that a teacher should not ask for money...it is his/her duty to impart education. she says she getting paid for whatever hard work she does in college...rest whatever students she teaches she is fulfilling her duty as teacher...it is her dharam . what an inspiring thought.
i cannot thank her enough for these small overlooked things i have learned from her..which are shaping me up even now as a better person. Her love ,her just being there is all the magic...all the luck that i need in my life

project with my kidoo 12
hi everyone...
both us got busy again...my lil girl and I...i needed some stringy lights for my art wall... i know there are dozens available in the market...but they dont have my mark on it ;)...so both of us ( mostly me) sat down for this task.. (ordeal i must say) ...i began three weeks ago with the grand idea of making five petal stocking flowers for each of my 80 lights on the string....gosh!!!
it ate up into so much of my time and by end of two weeks...after using all of my spare time....i managed to finish only forty...i dont know if i was too slow ;)..butttt i got bored..yup
then v decided to use some beautiful hand painted paper to cover the remaining lights .....nd my lil girl dutifully painted me some....nd they are lovely :)
we wrapped those around our lights....yes we love the effect..hope you guys too :)
yup those are the stocking flowers i was talking about :)
i love the lights now !!!!

hibiscus
hi,
another of my journals finished....i had such fun filling all its pages....i was actually sorry that it had only so many pages :)...then my lil girl said...mom u should paint the cover too...then it`ll be truly urs.
i grapped the idea...although i know its not a new one...but still i needed alil nudge :)
so at first i thought I`ll make a girl face..front profile...i sketched well but the painting went all bad...nd i lost all the interest...then thought i`ll make a waves and boat kinda thing...that didnt work out as well..
then i kept the journal down nd went out sat in my garden...sitting outside with birds nd flowers always inspires me :)..nd i decided to draw a hibiscus..
and i love the colour ..texture nd whole feel of thing...i hope u guys like it too :)

i made the blue background with watecolour and salt technique...then i made this flower and leaf doodle . I then dyed watecolour paper with colours and made these flowers..nd stuck some shiny beads in the middle. I stamped Merci (which means thank you in french) on sheet.Then just stuck everything together...and viola...heres the card...
I loved dyeing the paper for my hand made flowers... :)
i love stringy thingies...:)

the flower made the crazy juices flow inside my head and i made a multi media collage of it...that random piece of paper meant to throw away :). like every mother i would say ..my child delights me to no end...but her constantly very confident and very creative outlook of life surprises me always..:)
her art always inspires me !!!
this is my husbands favourite destination....he has been there once...but not a day passes by when he doesnt talk about france once...its his favourite place to go on his travel itinerary..hence finds a place on our bliss collage...there is something of each one of us on this piece :)
yup stitched....adddictedddddddddd
the flower :)
merci !!!

bird love
hi,
i am crazy about birds!!! actually more than spotting them i like drawing them... when i was a little girl a lot of Hoopoes use to roam around our garden and our house...at that time the birders in our family had yet not awakened,hence we use to call those Hoopoes......woodpecker....v did'nt knew the difference.
finally my uncle took interest in birds , and started studying them with such passion that entire family was bitten by this bird buggg!!! now all of us in the family can boast as amateur birders..
i don't why i was reminded of this small and very abstract happening during my childhood...but i decide to draw a woodpecker. so here it is :)
