Happy Wednesday...How has your weekend and week been until now? Mine has been busy, but I managed to meet some close friends and we caught up on recent happenings. It was a very refreshing meet...and as I tell them often...I wonder at times, as to what we would do without our favorite people in our lives! With those lines of thought, I worked on a painting...and as it sat drying on the dining table, I decided to call it 'Life', as it has lots of colors and textures interwoven...btw my home smells of fresh paint...
...Colors & Textures are like life...some days are bright, cheerful and positive...full of those things that makes one happy...and then, we have those colors that are not so bright...days and times that are tough! Textures are those learnings and people in your life, who are always there for you...help you balance life, making it easier to live...and to complete my train of thought, Sheila Sankolkar Aunty added.as a comment to my post of the painting on FB..."So let's take life in all its colors and textures in stride, whether bright or not bright.." So true...
Sharing some pictures of the painting...It is a Oil on canvas, a 24x36 painting. I experimented a lot before I got the texture I wanted...some of the experiments were way cool...will use and share them soon. The fun part was as I put in the pictures on Facebook, I got 2 commisions and 2 orders for similar ones...:-)

Patty.. How wonderful!!! I was looking to do some texture painting. But didn't have any clue on the technique. How did you get the texture on canvas? What materials to use? I enquired in a shop here in Chennai and the guy told me about gesso. Did you use this? Thanks for the post. You have done a great job of it. :)
