Here I am entering another smart phase. Blogging on mobile. My travel to Europe to see the IPM Essen and the hortishow is here in photos. Enjoy!
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 .

Watercolor abstract painting decoupaged
Water color painting on rIce paper was pasted on a mud pot and several coating of varnish was applied.See the result the painting shines and colors develop beautifully. This was indeed a dream to create and use watercolor painting on a permanent style.

Watercolor painting new style
This is my attempt to start painting again. I painted this on rice paper from Beijing sent by my friend Miss Wendy.This is a landscape worked in freestyle. The thin paper was then pasted on canvas board and varnished several times. This gave it a glowing appearence. Hope to see your comments dear friends.

Latest in my hobby
Hi everyone ,I missed on blogging for a while. I was too busy with hospital and looking after my dad I had to post everything in google plus! indeed an easy option. More visibility for sure. Currently in painting I am working on a mural and it will take time to finish. I am only learning this. But my main activity is in crocheting. Here are some of the new items.

Acrylic Landscape painting - breaking the gap
Finally after a very long break I struggled to make another painting.When I got hooked up with the hook crochet became all important and after fewdays my confidence to paint seems to have run away! All my previous paintings which were framed got sold and someone needed two more of my paintings . Well I sort of cornered myself to paint. Stopped my crochet work for past two days and I was itching to do something.I didnot have the courage to attempt watercolors so went for acrylic. Most of my paints have gone dry.Anway a meak attempt to do something ,safer option was painting a picture which I have already done twice!!I was glad I could break the so called silence in my art.Well I am determined to get going with crochet and painting, so see you soon and regularly.

Experiments in acrylic paintings-autumn landscapes
I was away on work and had an oppurtunity to visit family too.Whenever I go visiting I come across my earlier paintings. It makes me happy to see my paintings being treasured and put up in special places.
These two were done in acrylic on canvas board and were inspired by my visits abroad during autumn.
