One of the Aspen series of large paintings. Was very skeptical of them being picked up, particularly because of their size and also the landscape being more American. As mentioned earlier loved painting the vibrant colours and using knives to create the thick white barks.Initially it was very disheartening when none of the large ones were sold. Well over period of time their demand increased and the icing was when my friend Akila and her husband picked two of the large aspens.This is one of them.

The last of my Aspens series .The sunlit backdrop and the purple foliage was something that I loved to paint It proudly adorns my dining area.



































One of the Aspens  with fall colours, was so popular had to make two of them. These were the first paintings where a knife was used to paint the barks. The experience was so exhilarating that using of knife has become now a compulsion.








Spring is in the air, and so the bloom of spirited colours. Loved to paint this collage of colorful flowers, though I named it ' Yellow Flowers '  Placed at the entrance door of my house, it brings a smile on every face that enters..













The Trek, Painting the mountains was always a favourite. Here the melting snow rivulet, against the snow clad mountain with bright sunshine and sharp shadows was an interesting subject. Loved to share the outcome.




















After the Aspen series with white barks, I continued with the forests albeit with brown barks .The sun trying to stream in on the spring of flowers, made even the blue distant flowers appear as a stream of water flowing.










..


At some point of time, the theme of lights in the sky ( aurora borealis )had caught my imagination and had created a series. This one, with the purple flames against the orange glow of the hut was just too stark. Even the trees around had become almost transparent in the glow.













..



















The colours and the brightness egged me to make this painting of the corals and fish under sea. One of my series for the children;s room. The orange fish large and small peacefully coexist in this small patch of coral..

















Again the mountains, Here Used four canvases to create this one canvas. It was a bit tough to manage the coordination but the outcome was satisfactory. The grazing cattle and the sun reflecting the bright pasture area, created a tremendous contrast with the greens of the distant mountains. It was very well framed by my carpenter so the overall outcome was much better than my expectation.

Inspiring Sights from Italy...

Recent visit to Italy , has thrown up so many inspiring sites to paint that now am awaiting to sit down once again..

The spiral staircase, was more of a fire escape route. But this centuries old staircase became a tourist attraction in old Italy.

 Italy consists of over 100 islands with over 400 bridges connecting them. Each bridge threw up such a beautiful site..

 One of the bridges..

 Borano , one of the islands of Italy, with its colourful houses of fishermen who do so to make their daily life colourful and less plain..









Borano again

Viewing of the GREAT ' Monet " Exhibition in Frankfurt 23rd April, 2015

Could not believe my stars when in Frankfurt had the opportunity to watch the above exhibition at the Stadler museum. 
Was ecstatic to watch the originals of Monet, and the history behind their making. Spent almost 4 hours at the exhibition soaking in the Art of not just Monet but major other impressionistic artist of the 19th and early 20th century.
