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 .

Water color painting. Butterfly
Hi everyone. Thankyou for visiting and following my blog. I found a calendar on butterflies and they were so colorful and designed that I got a jolt to start painting again. This painting I have done on rIce paper from China. I am planning to decoupage this on a pot. So back to work on it. Do let me know how you like it.

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.
