I love embroidery & dress designing. But often I make delays of my work. Perhaps I am a little lazy or I have a large scope of activity that sometimes I take so much time to choose which work I should do first and start to finish my half done works. I observe people always praise my work but till date I am not totally satisfied with my work. I always want some changes or uniqueness in my work. It is a good sign, cos then only people improves. Now people can see these photos only bcos of my digital camera. Few years earlier i dont had D camera or the technology was not so improved that it was quite complicated to keep records or photos. So I feel so sorry that i have no photos of my earlier work.

Glass painting is one of my favourate art work. It is very easy & less time consuming. Among people I met there is hardly anyone who dont like glass painting. It is so gorgeous that people easily attracted & give orders or start learning from me. Nowadays you can paint on glass from any design. Starting from a simple flower, animal, bird,scenery to abstracts.

Charcoal and Pencil Sketches

These portraits are very dear to me especially the first one made in black & white, cos that is my mother with my elder sister a long time ago when she was a baby. I made the picture same as it is with the help of HB & charcoal pencil. There are so many experts in this world who make good sketches. I dont know whether I am eligible to put these photos here, but just trying to share & improve.
