It's been a long time since I even thought about writing a new blog post....There are a lot of reasons I can give for not been able to post anything....like here in India it is really hot and I have been involved in doing lot of other things...blah blah blah.....but the good news is that though I have not been making a lot of art...I have been doing something related to art.
Right now I am busy doing a course at IIM Bangalore on Entrepreneurship. And for one coursework all the fellow participants were divided into five groups to raise more money using Rs.500. And my group came up with this idea of doing an art workshop for I was a part of the group. Totally 18 people registered and there were 2 year old children were making art along with 40 year old fellow participants. We all enjoyed and had fun.
The duration was 3 hours...a basic introduction to Collage as a medium...The following poster was designed by my groupmate and journalist friend Vinutha Mallya...Thanks to her...I really liked it...
And here are some photos from the workshop:
All of them had a choice to select a Peacock or a Cardinal Bird or an Apple....And we used normal gum instead of gel medium and glaced papers, Newspapers and Magazine papers to make the collage....And at the end we did make some profit which was donated to an Orphanage.
Also I made a pair of Bamboo Panels few weeks back....I love making Bamboos...I made these really dense...they have been made specifically for bright orange wall...so I used some pastel violet in the background which is not seen very well in the picture:
I will be taking a better picture of these and post it as a separate post.....
And now I am working on my biggest collage piece.....Pink Manipuri Orchids... that will be my next post.....I will be back to my studio only by the end of June...So until then I may not be able to post regularly....
