My Cute lil' Terracotta Elephant all set to go for the Dassera prosession!!
Enjoyed working on this box so much... Etching each of those desings when the clay was Leather-hard and then filling up everything with a white paste called 'Engo'. I love it !
Am so crazy about diya's. I love seeing a LOT of diya's lit together. Made four lil' diya's and put them all together like this! It looks very pretty when lit!!
Another lil' Diya with the form of the parrot. I love birds as most of you already know looking at my paintings. As soon as i saw this piece.. i wanted to make it for myself too !! :)

Am glad u liked them... all my old works itself, nuthing new. yes! the stage set-up... a dupatta spread over a stool to give it a dark background! hehe! Not all tht bad..no?!! :)
Suvi.. they are SO lovely! I have never tried my hand at terracotta stuff.. does this mean we can easily make the earrings and such we go crazy about, by ourselves!?
sree, take my answer instead of suvi's! you just can make every dazzling dangl;-eeeEEE! you want for your ear! or ofcourse, *i* could deck you up! :-p!
suvi: i probably have not seen that parrot diya. looks fresh and brilliant! keep it going, though.

OMG! You are amazing! I loved the elephant. I loved the diyas. The box has just such an earthiness about it that it's incredible.
How long does it take you to do each piece?
hi Manisha.. Thank you so much!
It depends! like the Elephant and the box took about 3-4 days. It can be done a lil' faster too, with practice. Diya's are just a days work.
Very nice pictures !
