Madhubani Paintings

Gods,Goddess and various elements of nature are the preferred subjects for a madhubani artist. Iam really at loss of words.Look at the colours, the simplicity of design and how even a black & white picture can capture our attention. Hats off to the artisans whose resourcefulness has ensured that this art form continues to have a world wide market.

HANDS AT WORK

This is a quilt that I have made for my little niece / nephew who will bless our family soon.The cats are all set to welcome the little bundle of joy.

I am proud that I belong to a family of art lovers and artists in our own right.These are some "handiwork" of my mother-in-law.

My Little One

She is the apple of my eye.she is my Daughter.

Today le'mme take you to her comfort zone.Her room..Her lucky mascot,Winnie the Pooh and the piglet welcome you, in her world.









This is her pin-up board where she puts in all her contributions like her medals,certificates,craftwork etc,And yes she turned 4 last month.



We made a comfortable sitting arrangement,on the floor for her,one in which she can have all the fun without ever getting hurt.



This is a mirror and on its shelf are these lovely puppies.They pose along with my sweetiepie.



And her desk.She sits there most of the time scribbling something or the other.Often its only an alphabet,a drawing or a line here and there but then I also wonder,maybe its her piece of art...

'Sajavat' on An Indian summer

Hey Everybody,
Post dinner today, I sat with my laptop to work on my blog and ofcourse also to see some great work of other fellow design bloggers.I was really thrilled to find my blog being mentioned under the heading 'A few good blogs' in An Indian Summer.

I truly appreciate it.

Signs of Prosperity

A tree is like a mother,holding her children in her bosom.
Maybe it's this idea that fascinates an artist.
One day I suddenly realized that my collection is slowly increasing.Unknowingly I have accumulated many such 'mommies' under my roof,each one of them being different from the other.


This one is a stain glass painting occupying the centre point of my display shelf.When we were designing this unit,myself and my hubby instantly agreed upon this tree design.It faces the entrance and hence welcomes one and all in its abode.


Madhubani is a town in Bihar and is the origin of this beautiful art form, also known as the mithila art.Like in other folklore, here too there is an element of myth and have various tales revolving around them.
Trees symbolize fertility and life.

This is a handmade,embroidered piece.My sister S gifted to me on my Birthday.I Really find all the shades very interesting as it truly depicts the stages in one's life.


For all those who have visited my site before,are familiar with the Chennapatna Bulls and their love for this tree!!

Bright and Beautiful

It was my daughter's Birthday and to decorate the house I used fresh flowers to enliven my place.Trust me they spread warmth & happiness instantly.
Either make arrangement in a flower vase or uruli.They are great source to lift your spirits.

Bottle Art

Hi Folks,

Tried to do something innovative with the empty bottle lying around and this was the end result. You can try it too! Use it as a fresh flower container or even as a pencil holder in the kids room.Be creative. Think out of the box!
