i find it hard to draw something happy today. in the wake of the tragedy in connecticut, i simply wish that we are kind to each other… to choose love over hate, passion over power and most of all that we appreciate each other. every moment, every day.
i’m still on break but i wanted to re-share some of my favorite images. ^_^ my mother-in-law and i were talking about this hot cocoa called sipping chocolate once last year… a few days later i created this illustration.
there are days when i am truly happy with an image and this is definitely one of them – i love the play of small and large, the steam coming off the mug and the look the bear and girl are exchanging. there is so much story here – but there’s also story that the viewer can add. it’s one of the things i love the most about art.
i can create this illustration, but you can create the rest. what do you think happens next?
this one is for my dear friend and part of team everyday love, donna – happy happy birthday! ^_^
today you can get free shipping in my shop with the code YAYLOVE2012 – for US orders over $30. happy monday!
I’m so excited to share my shiny new website with you – everydayloveart.com! After a couple of months of data transfer, uploading, adjusting, and testing it’s finally ready for your eyes ^_^ Now you can order prints directly from my site and (drumroll please) I am now offering smaller (8×10) prints! All of my greeting cards, magnets and other products are also available. And my absolute favorite is the new Pick a Print feature – because I have over 500 images that grows daily, it sometimes takes away from creating new work to always add items to my shop. Now you can order a print from the past, or one that I’ve just created by typing in the title!
But that’s not all, I invite you to take a minute and look at the new site ^_^ I kind of love it, what do you think? ^_^
i am somewhat like a cat – curious and attracted to shiny, new things. as an artist i feel the same attraction to new things but often i don’t find the time to explore those desires. as i look forward in my career and life i want to be able to evolve with my work, to go where the art takes me. as much as i direct it, it also directs me. over the past year i’ve been very attracted to watercolor. the indian student in me kept saying “i need to take a class” and the nidhi in me said, “just try it!” so i did – armed with what i know about art already, some good paint and some not-so-good brushes ^_^
these are my results, and the trio of framed pieces will be available at trickster in berkeley. (grand opening this friday & saturday)
a work in progress!
this is the piece i created for the music video art show – inspired by michael jackson’s black or white!
