Felt Love

My love for felt is never gonna cease. No hem, no stitch, no finishing! Just cut and use... It makes life so easy! I had asked for some felt fabric and felt ball samples for explorations... received them and I'm lovin' them!

Color-Select

Weekend bit of work...
Dad is getting new t-shirts made for his office staff. He asked for a few texture samples and chose one.. this was pre Brown? Dark brown?? Light brown?? which brown?? Coffee?? Choosing color was the biggest confusion! and I had to settle down this confusion by selecting one proper color. I selected Sepia.. A nice brown! Neither too dark not to light! Just right!

Of course I asked the staffs choice... that was the easiest way indeed!! :)

Dots & Stripes

Absence of my computer for a few days made me sit with my water color box for a day... for few hours actually ;) Wearing my new yellow, green and red polka dot dress made me paint these polkas! And some coordinated stripes for it!!!
This often happened with me during my grad school days... did it happen with you too?? Getting influenced by the colors you are wearing and painting the same in your artwork/design. If not your own, sometimes color worn by your fellow classmates!!!

It was so much fun and excitement to paint these!!!

Inspiration: Gooseberry

I once saw gooseberries in the Crawford market and regrettably did not buy them, neither tasted not took a picture! Thus I do not much know about the fruit. But just the sight of it was inspirational enough to draw and compose a pattern of it.
I worked on these patterns last year and had forgotten about them completely until yesterday, when I saw this beautiful silver & pearl pendant.
A superbly elegant translation of the inspiration!! Such a fortunate connection!! Loved it!! Bought it!!
:)

Floral Blast

I'm not good at guessing names of the flowers but I'm good at drawing them ;)
Here are some poppy, lilies, asters, gladiolas, sunflowers, crocus and irisis.

This post is by an invitation from The Key Bunch people to participate in the celebration of their second bloggiversary!! Its party time on the blog world and its a floral blast "Say it with flowers!!" out here! You may also join the floral party!
I recently got introduced to The Key Bunch. It is an eclectic blog... I'm yet to explore it completely.

Artwork for stain glass

The ceiling work for my new home is almost over and I have planned to fix a stain glass on the ceiling just after you enter. Today I developed this artwork for the glass which measures 2 x 5 feet and would be back lit. Here I have tried to show scattered gulmohor silhouettes which I'm hoping will give the same feel as thought. Now will soon take the artwork to the person who would be doing the glass for me and I hope it turns out well! Fingers crossed!!
