I  glanced this elegant basket of fruits sitting on my daughter dinning table  .Suddenly I felt the urge to paint  it . Instead I registered the moment in several shots . Next day cancelling every plan I pulled out my watercolor book , brushes , and colors . Believe me when you have such urge you will forget every thing around you . That day I missed my lunch . Ops sometimes I even miss my blood pressure  tablets  . Seize your urge and exploit the moment you will never regret it .

It is another painting inspired by Cezanne . Cezanne  invented his own rules of painting . His stroke was bold and defiant  . In defending himself he said ; '' I paint how I see how I feel  - and I have very strong feelings- you also  feel  and see as I do  , but you do not take risks..... I take risks  ... I take risks  ..I have the courage to stand by my opinions .''

Title ; Wild Sunflowers
Pastel on Indian rag
Sold , prints available
Wild sunflowers is my first oil pastel painting on rag . Mixing colors on rag is exciting ,yet not easy . I want you to give me your opinion .

         Sometimes I like to try experimenting  with new mediums . To me oil pastel is an intriguing medium .
It has the feel of oil , while used as a pencil in drawing , which makes me able to control the shape without loosing fluidity .. Instead of paper I used Indian rags  as  canvas .I wanted  the paintings  to be sketches  that I can paint one day . The result is quiet pleasing  .
