Lost My Road

It was Friday night, and I was at a gig performed by some friends. Weather was perfect, and that in the pub was so enegetic. Everybody seemed to be enjoying, having loads of fun. I was a part of it too........at least I thought so. But there was some reticence within me. And then there started a song 'Lost my road' (By Johnny McIntyre) and as I listened, it seemed as if it was my story being told. I would like to share it with you here. Its so much true for this journey on which I have embarked upon.

             I've been away from you my heart
               Hiding away from my view for a while
               Learning to trust you again, is taking time
               The one thing I used to follow caused me so  much harm
               I lost my road again.............

Its so much true. I have been away from things those have been a part of me,  those make me happy and those make me who I am. But in recent times, I have moved away from them, not knowing why and it has only caused pain.
This blog for me like 'wondering in the long grass' and taking some time to think and find my path.

             Finally I found some sort of path
               But really a line of dirt that I could see between the long grass
               So I might just follow, follow this sign
               Of something better might just come somewhere along the line
               While looking for the road again.

With that looking forward to follow my heart again.

Good Day!!!

Watercolour painting

Good Morning Everyone, There is always a time when we look back on things we enjoyed doing.  Back in school and college days, I was very regular in doing drawing/ painting. Long gone are those days, when I would spend vacations taking different painting classes, learning new techniques and then making my own drawings. Come Diwali, and I would get busy making greeting cards with watercolour, poster colour and even pencil sketching at times. No two cards would be similar. I miss those golden days. Just recently I did some watercolour painting again. Revising my knowledge and skill was a hard job. But I managed as you can see the result is not so bad. Stage 1: Pencil Sketch Stage 2: Adding Grey and pink tones- one petal at a time Final Product  In my next post will show how I have turned this painting into digital greeting card. Till then have a good day ! Cheers, Namrata

Maggie Beer's Upside down Grape Cake

Greetings to all food lovers! Masterchef 2012 season is on again, and I am not missing a single episode. There are so many wonderful recipes shown on the show, that I want to try cooking most of them myself. The list just keeps growing. To start with I tried making Maggie Beer's Upside down grape cake (challenge set up for one of the ellimination rounds). Although it had other two components namely Verjuice and Extra Virgin Olive Oil Ice Cream, with Vino Cotto Raisin and Ginger Wafer, I decided just to go with the Cake.

Step 1: Verjuice syrup in the cake pan Step 2: Grapes lining the base over the syrup  Oops I forgot to take the step 3 photos: Cake batter and meringue making ..... :( Step 4: M...

Watercolour + Photoshop

Hi Everyone, Like I said in last post, I will tell you about the new cards I made combining one of my watercolour painting and photoshop techniques. This was my original watercolour. Then I scanned it and treated in photoshop. First step was to change the brightness and contrast. Second changed colour range using colour balance tool. Then picking the background greens, applied a filter- angled brush strokes. This gave the following result. Now it is possible to print multiple copies of this card. All seasonal greeting cards are ready to print. Have a good week ahead! Cheers, Namrata
