I want to include this post in creative art everyday challenge.I Saw this crocodile stitch crochet stole in a knitting magazine and it said this is now so much in fashion. It said it was one of the difficult to do pattern. Well as usual that was enough for me to fall in love with that stitch. Checked out the web and found this very good video in the Youtube which teaches crocodile stitch.(from all free crochet.com).It took me nearly a day to learn but it was fun. So here is my creation with the crochodile stitch crochet pattern. It came out beautifully and everyone at home liked my design with the different colors. My lovely niece Drishya who started college this year loved it so this is for her with love from her aunt.And thanks to Amma for putting the zipper. Do let me know your comments.Size of the bag is 7inch*7inch.
I am professionally a plant tissue culturist.My first love was botany and while learning about plants I was introduced to drawing.Now plants and flowers are part of my life.Forgetting the academics I try to enjoy beauty of nature through paintings.When I travel nature and places appear before me like a kaleidoscope.Its too vast for my eyes to behold and I want to capture them in my mind .There are so many colours and shapes and I try to present a few here through my paintings .

Crochet and watercolor practice on sunday
A lazy sunday gone by . I took up an easy picture to do for watercolor practice . A picture from a greeting card. My boat misfired!
I also went to an art gallery in cochin to see a watercolor painting by two graduates from fine arts college in town. It was a nice show ,inspired me to take up my painting more seriously. There was also an exhibition by a 7 year old girl in acrylic colors. With no basic training her paintings were very good.
You may be wondering about the title yes I did crochet a neck scarf its the fun part in my life when I get an artists block .
