'tis the story of five mud pots that lived in a corner of home, and needed some Color!
Out came my acrylic paints ...
Did a deep blue on two of 'em
With a white twig on one.
Merged blues, white and green on another ...
Popped out one dirty fellow with a yellow...
Gave the fifth a worn out look, as if the blue-green-pink pattern inside was washed away with many years of the dark brown.
Up they perched on my ledge,
What is your critique, and pick-of-the-lot?

Along with a painting of mine.
Go, Show off yourselves to all,
The shapes and colours of thine!

How lovely! My favourite was the blue/green + white one. The colours of the sea.
ReplyDeleteFascinating colorful story! Thanks so much for sharing :) Its hard to choose one but I loved the blue/green one like Miss Frangipani and I also loved the worn out look! Can I take one of them with me, please.. :P
ReplyDeleteLuv the way u write ur post :)
ReplyDeleteI'm really impressed. Since you say to pick, I'll pick the yellow one. That picture between the pots must be drawn by you, right? Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAmbi... Lovely work.. I love the blue and white and the shocking blue pots.. is the last one a terrecota pot or is it glass?
ReplyDeleteAmbika, I love all of them, unique and gorgeous in their own way, very well done:):)
ReplyDeleteThe entire collection is so beautiful...I wish I can have one of them:)
ReplyDeleteAmbika, you chose lovely colors for all of them...very nicely painted. My fav is the blue and white one and also the one with the washed out look.

Reminded me of craft classes in school when we used to use oil paint in water- a crazy mix of all colours to get a rainbow random lined pot we could take home after school.
ReplyDeleteP.S: Love the white twig. :)
She transforms the mundane into works of art with her magic wand.
ReplyDeleteGood art work Ambika,
ReplyDeleteLoved the deep blue and the worn out one... The painting and the pots are showcasing a rustic feel to them, only that the table looks out of place :)
lovely post :).you are so talented!!
ReplyDeleteThanks M&M, Miss Frangipani, notyet100, Kala, Saru, Neha, Sonia, Sameera, Purba, Santosh and Sudha!! :)
ReplyDelete@Purba, I loved that! :P
ReplyDelete@Arti, sweet, sure you can pick one, any time you're in Blore :)
@One, yes the drawing is by me!
@Preethi, the brown one is terracota too!
@Santosh, yeah the chalk paint's got to be put to use on that ledge "to get that rustic look" :)
Thank you all too!
Love the first one and second; the first deep cobalt blue is gorgeous....is it varnished? You've inspired me; I'm off to collect some paints :)
ReplyDeleteLove the one with worn out look...
ReplyDeleteWow...nice work ..and I also love the way u narrate
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful pictures ,...I really liked the yellow one :)
ReplyDeleteAmbika, you have painted all of'em great but my fav is blue and white one...your artwork is beautiful and photography is stunning...
ReplyDeleteIn isolation the pot with worn out colours of yellow looked best, but when everyone is put together, I liked the pot with the handshakes of white and blue :)
ReplyDeleteWithout doubt the yellow, though the blue and white comes a close second :-)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous all of them.love the deep blue a bit more.and that sketch...awesome
