Kids art and etc.

Sometimes my daughter, Poonam, comes up with some goofy ideas about how to do certain things. So the 7 year old wanted to teach her 5 year old brother, Kaushik, about Plants. So here is how she went about the explanation.

This is her sketch. She used the Spiromatic Design maker to make the flowers and the rest of it is her imagination.

Yes, now Kaushik knows all about plants. This is his drawing with chalk on paper.

Aint she a good teacher?

Now for the Goofy Mom(Me of course) who scribbled some words about the two little goof balls.

Sharing Things I like doing

One of the things I have always enjoyed doing is dabbling in Scribbles and Paints. Of course, there were objections in my home for spending(nay, according to my parents "Wasting") time with such trivialities. But it was something I really enjoyed doing, other than reading books, dreaming and laughing. None are Original, I have usually copied something that catches my eye either on a Magazine or Newspaper or Brochures and catalogues( I have Junk which looks like piles and piles of Books ). I like to sketch, with the aim of seeing how close I can come to the original picture. Most times its close but not the same, it will be skewed somewhere if you compare it with the original. I usually sketch from either photographs or a picture, never real life(that is intimidating, I cant sit still and if its landscape, one blow of the breeze will make a shift in the picture my eye sees). As for paintings, I stick to the colours I see on the original, sometimes I do use my own version. It will seem disjointed and less cohesive than the original when I use my own version of colours. Here are some of the results. Hope you enjoy.

Now for the Paintings

Peace Always,
