Live to Love & Love to Live - Arts!

Here's the 'happy' zone I feel content with. I can soak in arts! :)

Wood and ceramic can make a beautiful combo. Gift this lovely photo frame to your friends and watch them go, "Wow!"! Personalised gifts are worth more than a million bucks!




Embossing can more taxing on your hands than your brains. More labor and less creativity. Ask me what's the best tool to create this and I'd say - patience! Being a typical Arien made me lax at it. It took me a great deal of patience - precisely two years to complete embossing Lord Shiva on an aluminum sheet (one year out of which the incomplete, embossed sheet was lying aside ;) )


Canvas painting: Made this when I was in college. Love the warm shades of this beautiful scenery, especially the vivacious waterfalls! Used acrylic colours




Wood Painting: Ask your carpenter to keep aside a waste piece of wood for you. Using acrylic colours, you can do some amazing painting on wood. Don't forget to apply picture varnish as a final coat. 




A decorative tabletop piece is the best option for any person or occasion you can think of! Get started with a plain frame of wood, ceramic and acrylic colours!




Imagine wearing something you created. Paint your own T-shirts with your favourite designs and flaunt them!




Another decorative tabletop piece for your religious friends. Easy and quick to make. Made of plywood, ceramic and acrylic colours.




Your creativity and love for arts can be beautifully exhibited, starting from your doorstep. A name sign design inspired by one of the Google doodle designs I loved (all of them are out-of-the-world!)




You may find these at every nook and corner of your locality during Diwali. But you will know the difference when you light the lovely diyas painted by you!



Modern-age diyas: both artistic and grease-free!


Fancy Rangoli Mats! Form unusual designs using individual rangoli pieces and use them at doorsteps, on glass tables, arati thaalis, etc.! Quite a time-consuming craft though!

Photoshop is a designer's delight! Designed this birthday invitation for my niece's first birthday! Had a jolly good time as I burnt the midnight oil while designing this. This was 3 years back!


 One more birthday invite for nephew's (my cousin's son) 1st birthday. Was completely in tune with the Looney Tunes! Enjoyed working on this as well. :)


Some Adobe Illustrator & Corel Draw works -

A random jewelry design...Honestly, I was kind of worked up when I made this...it shows...doesn't it?



A realistic effect with the 3D feature of Illustrator - A yummylicious-looking fruit bowl!
