CANVAS PAINTING- Black and White

I am a fan of black and white contrast.When black absorb all other colors, white reflects them.... which other color give this contrast?

This painting didn't took much time. It was easy and simple.

CROSS STITCHING...In the Shade of Love...

CROSS STITCHING...In the Shade of Love...


This is a cross stitching done by me. 

Cross-stitch is a popular form of counted-thread embroidery in which X-shaped stitches in a tiled, raster-like pattern are used to form a picture. 

Cross-stitch is often executed on easily countable evenweave fabric called aida cloth. But, here I used a frame. 

We have to count the threads in each direction so that the stitches are of uniform size and appearance. 
This form of cross-stitch is also called counted cross-stitch in order to distinguish it from other forms of cross-stitch.

To customize it I just left one portion of the thread free instead of stitching. In final outcome it gave a 3D result.



Try it. It really needs patience  and composure to a great extent. But, once you complete one, you will really love it. 

Since my wall is ivory in color, I gave a black frame for it.  

Try doing one and enjoy the fun.

GLASS PAINTING - FAIRY


GLASS PAINTING-CHINESE KOI FISH


Acrylic painting


This is my all time favorite as this is my first sold out acrylic painting.

Started with red and moved along to yellow for the horizon.

And how could a tree branch be lively with out some birds, especiaally two love birds..... so they are here...


Acrylic Painting - TULIPS

Work of Tulips in progress...

Work in progress..

I preffered painting the minute details first after giving a light shade in the background.This helped me to assume how it will and how it should look after completing it.


Arylic painting...Tulips

Added the needed green and loved using a light brown shade for the tree and just brushed it for the background also. Play with colors and try experimenting.

Tissue Paper Flowers...

Tissue Paper Flowers...


How to make tissue paper flowers?

You will need:
  • Tissue paper
  • Scissors
  • 2 paper clips
  • Floral wire
  • Optional:floral tape,wire cutters

Tissue Paper Flowers...a closer view..


1.  Take 5-6 tissue papers one over the other.Fold it half way and then again to a half. Draw a 
     circle on the top side. You can use a bottle cap with required diameter. I feel that a circle of 
     around 7 cm diameter will give a realistic size.

2.   Now cut the circle out. Clip the paper for keeping them altogether. 

3.   Make a small hole at center of the circle and insert a floral wire through it.Tie it firmly.

4.   For making the petals, separate the first layer of tissue paper and crumble it upwards.

5.   Now crumble each layer one by one.

6.   Use the floral tape to wrap the stem all the way to bottom which will give a more realistic look.




 Try it out. I feel it simple and interesting. 
 What about you?

CLAY FLOWERS

Clay flowers...
These flowers are made by polymer clay.

Make small balls with the clay. Spread it flat and cut it in the desired shape of petals.Use color of your choice.

If you are using, air dry clay, you have to paint it with oil paint.

 Cut leaves also in the same way. It is easy to make the veins of leaves by pressing a thin floral wire when it is still wet.

If you are using long petals, you may try pressing them at the bottom  in the shape you want. But if the petals are small, better use any glue.

And here it is.... My little flowers...

Yarn wall hanging...

Yarn wall hanging...
This is made with yarn flowers,some yarn pieces and bangles.

First round the yarn across the bangle.

Attach your flower on to that.

Keep a small piece of yarn for hanging it.

My one suggestion is to use colors that matches with your interior color theme.
