Hi there!

Absolutely nothing beats the joy of watching water colours play on paper from the touch of a brush in my hand. I have and always will enjoy painting even though it sometimes takes me ages to get into the momentum of painting. ‘Scribbles and Splashes’ is a blog that I once began when I wanted to let go of the pent-up urge to splash with water colours and share pictures and the behind-the-scenes thoughts with my family sitting kilometres away from me. Over the years, it has been dormant for months (nearing a year and sometimes even more such as when motherhood beckoned!) and then been active in fits and starts.

Mid-2013 is when I feel like looking into the mirror and declaring this as “The Moment” that this becomes the year of the revival and flourish of ‘Scribbles and Splashes’, the blog and its growth into a self-sufficient near-full-time engagement for me.

I thrive in art. Period. If I could, that’s all that I would do all day long. It seems like a distant dream right now, but this is where I start playing around with a wish and seeing how it takes shape. I’m splashing, I’m scribbling about it and I’m becoming “an artist”. From exactly right now.

  1. This reminds me of my childhood days at Shimla where we used to see a lot of bunches like these. The uniformity and intricacy of each of these flowers is worth appreciation. Well done, Sweetex !

  3. Glad there's a streak of nostalgia that this piece evokes, Mom! We have tons of these in the garden - with varied colours... I'd love to try some more dramatic 'poses' some time soon, too!

  4. Thanks Jelaine! Looking at your works over the last couple of months has been a pleasure. I particularly love the Venetian Carnival figures that you painted - brilliant is an understatement, ma'am :)
