Doors intrigue me….

Now, if you haven’t seen Lakshmi Prabhala’s Photography, you haven’t seen anything in blog world… Really!!! I’ve told you a million times, I simply love people who are truly themselves…. talented, naturally gifted and artistic. I love anyone who can do something that I cannot do…. And I totally admire and love creativity that is reflected in Lakshmi’s work. Lakshmi’s words

Doors, they tell their own stories- who stay there, what do they do, what they like? The door knobs, rivets, locks, paints, curtains together with the textures of the wall create a poetry that reveals their past. They are indeed a fascinating subject and will tell a great deal more, if only we look at them more closely. Windows and doors are ways to enter into a world.

Well, I am meant to feature Lakshmi on my tête-à-tête series, but have been extremely lazy in sending her the questions. I just couldn’t wait to introduce her work to her….
So interview to follow soon (when I am not so lazy) *wink* – In the meanwhile, Please check the following links for her work – Blog on Hyderabad City or Lakshmi’s travelogues or Lakshmi’s online flickr pictures or on Facebook.
Are you as amazed as I am????

  2. Oh nice Patty! I agree...something alluring and mysterious about doors. I remember doing a post on doors way back...! I love the colors on these and the fact that they are old, peeling, chipped, cracked....so much character! Lovely!

  10. Patricia, this is easily one of the best posts I have read on a blog in recent times. Thank you for introducing us to this amazing woman - and I love your choice of pics!
    You have made me start thinking of a nice character-full door...replace my dull wood finish one, and paint it nice and bright? Not fair!!:(( ...all this new found door love!!
