A few lazy days....

I am going to my hometown in a few days and the shopping, making umpteen number of lists, preparations for packing, packing itself, and hefty doses of day-dreaming does not help blogging any..

To slow things further, I have recently made a bunch of good friends..the process of discovery is sooo amazing..just finding the common grounds between people, getting to know them, settling into a comfortable routine and then sustaining the relationships... I am a bit sad I found them as I am about to be absent from their company, on the other hand, I know that when I come back, i will have their company to look forward to, and not miss my family so much...

And my baby girl is also finding all this activity thrilling and is reacting to everything with enthusiasm....

Looking forward to re-visiting a lot of landmarks in my life..and seeing all those dear faces too.... hopefully, with a lot of frames frozen this time round..I have the most lovely memories, but the snapshots are in my mind..hopefully I can collect a few tangible ones this time to take out and show my daughter when she is more able to comprehend them..

Hope I'd be able to keep u posted once in a while..but even otherwise, I promise to collect a lot of material to keep this blog going for some time.........

Buddha - Acrylic on canvas


This is the first I am attempting to paint Buddha. Now that I have done one, I think I will do more..Like Ganesha, there are infinite possibilities with the form of Buddha too...

This one has been done with Acrylic on a canvas that I bought ready-made and stretched on the frame. Actually this frame was picked up by my brother for one of his experiments..but when I packed my bags to leave Doha, he tossed it in with my luggage...Thanks bro...

By the way, August is a month I like a lot... both my siblings are leos who celebate their birthdays within 3 days of each other..and to add to that my favourite nephew too celebrates his birthday this month..and THIS month this year, I will be having get-together with my family...so the count-down has begun for me..
And I really intend to enjoy myself and also to gather a lot of inspiration for my blog....
