Floral Wall Art

I visited Mumbai last week, after a whole one and a half years !! Tough to believe, but true! I was there for my husband's cousin's wedding - it was so refreshing to be amidst all the cousins and folks :) For the first time I found peace in chaos, literally - quite strange, coming from a person who highly values and loves her personal space :P

I had the wall art decoration plan on my mind for a very long time but I'm quite glad that I was able to achieve it in a span of couple of days.. working for random snatches of time each day. I wish I had clicked pics as I was drawing and creating it, but well - this is what I have :) :)

I decorated this particular wall, which is at the entrance to our apartment in Mumbai, where my inlaws live currently. This particular wall was looking quite plain and I thought it was time to liven it up a bit. I thought up the design and also drew it in a matter of half n hour. The painting and shading bit is what took ages, resulting in severely sore arms :P


A natural setting...


Rich with vibrant colours




From a different angle


And finally, from the angle that it looks the best!!

I just loved the final effect. Worth every sore muscle, and every minute of my time and passion spent!! What did you feel?
