Feelings 77...words and colours!

The year 2016 
has been absolutely abundant 
and blessed 
and I am nothing less but grateful!
 My creative play with teabags remained the highlight.
 It began with "My Chai Tamaasha" at Kala Ghoda Arts Festival 2016 in February.
 That inspired me to begin with my series of art on teabags which I named "Feelings 77".
 And then I got the opportunity to showcase "Feelings 77" as my first Solo Exhibition.
 What else could I have wished for! 
This besides other art related activities,
a number of art-sales and workshops!
 Thanks to my family 
and 
all my friends who have been always so very inspiring :)

Feelings 77-The Event

This event is a showcase

of a series of work on teabags

which I named “Feelings 77”…

one feeling a day expressed on a teabag for 77 days!!

Why specifically ‘77’?

I discovered that

number 77 indicates

coming changes

of self-discovery

or increased knowledge

through understanding oneself...

ultimately leading to greater motivation,

transformation or freedom!!

And yes the number I feel is catchy too!!

When you are breathing in

and breathing out your passion...

each day is like a mini-vacation in itself!!

This is what happened to me

as I sat down

to render my feeling of the day

on my canvas i.e. a tiny teabag...

I felt at peace…

in love

and celebrated that feeling!!

As I reflected what my heart held

at that time or may be some inspiring moment of the day…

it was as if

I was sharing a small bit of myself

with the world around me.

I strongly believe that

the key is to make the most of what I possess in the "Now"

…show trust and continue at a pace which delights me...

and not to stop come what may!!

I am sure persistence ignites momentum

and can create

an ever-lasting impression.

Curiosity leads to Passion

The doors to the unknown...

beckon...stimulate senses...

give way to fascination

And following the clues to life...

I set to uncertain adventures

...Curiosity leads to passion!!

Dream

It is raining here.

Monsoons in Mumbai are

simply awesome.

 The world from my balcony looks various shades of green .

The cool breeze 

whispers through my hair 

some old tunes.

 The pots have some beautiful fuschia flowers

 making me smile.

My kitchen smells delicious 

with the aroma of fresh curry

 and fragrant rice.

 Blessed I am!

The brush on my table

and the pallette in my hand 

 reckon me to begin.

Being authentic is a luxury too!!

Because the clay sings to me too...

I listen to its heart...

Because being a whole 

lot of lovely is so simple

                                   

Because in a bowl of roses

 I think I saw the gypsy me...

Because I dream 

and I believe!!

A client requested me to illustrate this architectural delight 

on teabags!

Mayo College in Ajmer, Rajasthan India is 

a feast to eyes !!

What do you say?

Do leave your mark here!!

You know I love to read your comments :)

In my Solitude

In my solitude

I have built

my own garden 

of bright rainbows

where peacocks

kiss the raindrops

and roses whisper

the songs of love

where cool breeze

sets beauty... free

...free to amaze

...free to just be!!

where fireflies 

dance in my eyes

and I smile 

with your hand in mine

and where

His blessings

sprout blossoms

of happiness 

all around me! 

Oh ! in my solitude 

I have built 

my own garden 

of bright rainbows!!

                                                                             

And I continue to Feel...

Last week was too many things in my hands!!

I just could not

 manage to put up a post !

It was like working on myself... by myself...

for mine and

 myself!!

And today there is 

so much love to share with you

 ...all my friends!!

My series of work on used teabags 

Feelings 77 has come to an end

...yes how time flies

I just can't imagine 

that I have relegiously created

 one piece of art

on used teabag 

everyday

continuously for 77 days!!

But do I stop here...

No!!

I continue to 'feel'

and so to "pause'  is not an option !!

I continue to create

and will share my new works soon

Till then enjoy my Feelings 77

and don't forget to drop a line of love 

it makes me smile :)
