It has been a long time ...

 I have not uploaded any of my creative work for a long time. Since, I post my work on Instagram, I haven't been using the camera to take the photos to post on my blog. 

 Finally, I figured out how to upload photos from phone to blogger. :)  There's a quite a lot I can share... yay !

I have been experimenting with collage/torn paper art, and recently tried incorporating fabric to my mixed media art. 

These are some of my recent attempts.

After a very long time....

I have not posted any of creative pieces for a quite long time. My camera battery stopped working and I was not able to fix the problem.  I kept postponing getting it fixed(specially with all Covid restrictions) and finally managed to get it work( i think) 

I have been keeping busy with bit of creative work.

Gustav Klimt inspired

Henry Matisse's blue willow was the reference for this collage/applique.  

Still life collage/applique

Another collage/applique "red scarf"

Couple of Modigliani art in running stitch

I do love, how the both ladies turned out. My eyes needed a rest after so many tiny stitches. And, I had got new glasses :)

I hope you are well and safe,

Thank you for stopping by,

August creative makes..

A still life collage;

made in Toronto cider !!

Stump-work portrait : inspiration Mrs. Sophia Petrilo, from popular  80's US TV series " The Golden Girls".

How is my Sophia ?

Bit of weaving..

Finally, a small piece of kantha embroidery also inspired by the picture of this lady who is making rice flour on a stone grinder. I kept the picture, which was printed on a packet of wheat flour I bought quite sometime ago. I wanted to do a painting of it, but I never got around to do it until recently. I did pencil colour drawing of it and, that gave me the idea to try this embroidery. 

To all everyday women !!

Summer is almost ending .....
