Abstract art II




Sky at the time of sunset was so wonderfully painted red and gold that I ignored sun for a while and captured just the sky...forms a great background for art or a sunset abstract art, loved it! :)=

Abstract art?!...



Talking about jelly fish, the one above which has a very artistic pattern in its body with an abstract art look is a type called Sea Nettle, this one is from Long beach aquarium, California, and even though they look attractive, stay away! Turns out their sting is deadly!

Nature pattern IV.



As you already know, jelly fish is not a fish and the ones in this picture are called moon jellies and interetsingly has no brain or bone, but purely a body made up of interesting patterns!

A walk in the park...



Half an hour of morning walk in the park does the same thing to your heart and mind like what half an hour of yoga does to your body...Very refreshing!

Nature's art brushes for you!


Look at this nature's color palette! Somehow, to my eyes, the center stem looks like a bunch of tiny art brushes on a stand, with their tip already coated with wonderful colors, nature's ''ready to go'' brushes for artisits...go grab them!

Silence...


I say ''Silence is bad when you are sad,
and is good when you are mad!
I think it is better to speak out when you are in sorrow and better to not say a word when angry...Don't you agree with me?

Bye Bye Snow...




Just a week ago we had a heavy snow storm and that is expected to be the last one this year, but I couldn't capture many pictures since my camera was left in my check in baggage while travelling from los Angeles to cincinnati, and got our baggage almost 4 days later due to flight delays!...and most of the snow had melted away by then...Anyway, its fun to look through the window from our room and watch the delicate snow flakes ''landing'' on earth gently..and a cup of hot coffe will make the joy complete....Ah! You have to see it to believe it...

When snow meets spring...




....is the time when colorless meets colorful!! Interestingly snow is the time when the nature draws attention even for being totally colorless! Isn't that something?
I love snow, even though its sad that the season is almost over the spring is sure to bring back the smile on our face.

My first painting with Wacom pen tablet....



I just loved those orange flowers in my previos post photo, and I wanted to try it using wacom pen tablet, but since i'm using apple I had to use ''paintbrush''(like MS paint) which has very limited brushes and tools, and I dont have any other paint software, would be nice if someone can suggest some better software for wacom tablet, since this is my first painting using it. Please do not compare it with the real photo where nature is at its best...Have mercy!

Spring is here....




Spring is my favorite season...I think without spring, Nature is just like a black and white Photo....
Bye-Bye winter, stay away summer,
Spring is here, a reason to cheer!

Macaw...The true love birds!




Did you know Macaw mates for life, sticks to one partner and remain together forever?! Well, here's the macaw message for all of us-''Loyalty rules!'' Also, if you click on this picture and see the original size, observe closely, you will notice the thick tongue, and no its not the lower beak...look again! Macaws use their strong beaks and tongue to crush the hardest of nuts....and as you can see in the picture below it looked as if this macaw was trying to show off his powerful beak! The ones you see here is blue and gold Macaw, which unfortunately is now endangered. I was lucky to get to see them before it becomes extinct.

The natures way to express love...




If Rose is the flower that carries the message of love then I guess each and every petal is nothing but a love letter....

It's lonely at the top...



On top of the world yes, but all alone....

Hidden Beauty...



Hidden behind the fence or wherever it be,
Beauty never fails to attract me and this bee...

Male becomes a pregnant!....



Yes, talking about Sea Horse where luckily for females, they are spared from pregnancy....and this is also seen in Sea Dragon which is slightly different, having leafy structures on its body unlike Sea Horse, and interestingly sea horse swims in upright position with fin on its back.

Water under bridge and bridge under water!



Which bridge do you want to cross?I think the achiever takes the one above and daydreamer takes the one below...

Mother of 7...



I captured this one in one of the ponds in our apartment neighborhood, She was an awesome mother who was seen caring for her baby throughout. I have one 2 year old son and thought I was very busy, but this one here is 7 times busier than me!

My Art for your Heart!



Painting is one of my favorite hobbiies which keeps me busy when I'm free! I'm still learning it, and trying out canvas painting like the one above...Here's what my love for painting says...
''Looking at any art with just your eyes simply makes you a viewer, Analysing it from deep within your heart makes you a connoisseur! ''
Because... ''The beauty of art is rated by the heart not by your Eyes!'' and interestingly,
''An artist can make a stranger connect with him in no time''- Kudos to all those wonderful artists out there, in whom I will always find a ''guru'' and learn something wonderful!
