Series- Gajra

The final assignment was to do a series. I chose to do a series on Gajra (jasmine flower garland). I made 3 paintings in this series. I used impasto technique for the figures. The background is the rangoli design.

Week 15- Final

Our final project was to photograph alphabets in nature. I chose to find alphabets in plants. I found many in my backyard. I made a video of the alphabets.

Week 14- Portrait

My nephew was visiting, so I took his pictures for this assignment. He let me take pictures of him. Most of the time he never noticed that I was taking his pictures.

Studio

This was the biggest moment of my life. Yori Seeger approached me to ask if I was interested in renting a studio in his new school, School of Visual Philosophy. I was thrilled that I could independently pursue art. I said Yes. It took another year to acquire the space and start the school. The grand opening of the school was on 2nd May. Lots of people came. Now I have my own space to work on several art mediums, oil, acrylic, watercolor, wood, sculpture, etc, etc.
My daughter helped me paint the studio. My friend loaned me her table.
