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.


Inauguration 5th of November 2016 at 5:00 p.m.
Duration 5th November to 30th November 2016
Venue Shaurya Arts Gallery, Belapur, Navi Mumbai

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 :)
