A VASE OF FLOWERS-AN OIL PAINTING

Here is my old oil painting...

It is a replica of a ceramic flower vase

filled with pastel flowers ,leaves and buds....

from an art book...

FLOWER BURST- A STAINED GLASS PAINTING

Multicolored flowers

create a magic with a  unique charm ....

The striking colors and the 

medium-sparkling glass-

adds to the charm when it lets

 light pass through and light up the painting 

to a poem in glass!

CUTE LITTLE FLOWERS -A NIB PAINTING...

Here is my Nib Painting....

I picked up this design from 

an embroidery design sheet...

I decided to use it in some art work

and I found Nib painting the right platform...

Usually nib paintings are done on a felt cloth 

which is stretched or stuck on a board...

I traced out the design...

preferred a pastel shade for the flowers

and gave bright shades of green

 for the leaves...

the  stalks got a yellowish shade

 to bring out the difference...

when the work was finished  using oil colors 

with a set of special nibs and was about to be framed...

my friend who saw it commented 

" Nice embroidery work..."

I told her that it is not an embroidery

but a Nib Painting...

and the success of a good nib painting

is it should look like a needle work...

I was glad my Nib flowers passed the test...
