I'm on a painting spree this year.I finished this Mysore painting a month ago.I've always wanted to do Yashoda-Krishna (mums are the best right) and settled on this picture since it was naughty and uncommon. I turned Bangalore inside-out & upside-down searching for authentic Chettinad frames. Finally found an exclusive store very close to my house! Irony ;-) In Chennai I know there are plenty of shops but I didn't want to risk possible damage to my painting during travel. I'm simply falling in love with the frame everytime I see it. Before you ask, this doesn't hang in my home yet- there's no place. Even if you aren't going to ask, this isn't on sale. It won't ever be either. Lastly, holiday-hangover so that's all I can manage for now !! :-) I'm enjoying the rains, are you?!
p.s. will get my brother to take a better picture soon.

These two are some pair, aren't they! Krishna is supposed to open his mouth wide, no?
At one time, some kids were enacting that scene in a dance and the Krishna girl had to keep her mouth wide open for a long time while the other kids dance around her. "My mouth is paining", complains the poor thing :)
Hey! It's raining here too! :)
You have serious talent girl! The window behind them, the jewelery, the attention to detail.. Very nice. :)
I am soooo impressed. You're so talented. :-D
Wonderful painting..
No place to hang..not for sale ...So R u planning to gift it to me :P
uptake, Is he supposed to open his mouth wide always! Funny incident ;)poor kid..something I would've done too.
Choco, kolkata main baarish,wow :) Btw I love that Bengali rain song -tupur tupur(hope I got it right). And thanks!!!!
Agnes, Oooh thanks!;-0
Shobha, there's no harm in dreaming ;-))
Each time, I am jealous more and more. Now seriously, where do I take these classes? Any place you recommend in and around Indiranagar? I always wanted to learn painting and now your paintings have inspired me to take it up seriously!!!
Krishna is naughty here, i liked the blue shade on his body. Wonderful!!
i feel the frame adds more beauty to the pic :D semma selection...pic as usual rocks...u r fast becoming blogspots pissasu..che.. picasso :)
Lovely painting and wonderful frame!!
Finer details done with such perfection...impressive.
It rained here yesterday and it might today too...but its not the rainy season here...its hot summer time, so such showers are more than welcome.
Have a great time!
Cheers :)
Wow!! it's so beautiful and I love the frame too. You chose a good one after turning bengaluru upside-down :) It's really good. I am confused about one thing. Why do you have a blue bubble over his head?
That frame is so beautiful .. a nice traditional look to it :)
Ur painting .. as always .. beautiful :)
Hey I read your blog pretty regularly and have added you to my blog roll...Is that ok?
Thats a brilliant painting...so apt for the upcoming Mother's day !!!
Oh !!! I love Chettinad frames - they are just so royal.
Doesnt hang in your house. Not for sale. You know what, you could gift it to me !!! What say ??? :D :D :D
Nice work and I loved the effort you put in the saree and the pillar!! :)
Ohh yayy.. Finally this .. Amazing.. super .. painting ..
and what's better .. Mothers day is coming ..perfectly matching with it .
You should be putting ur paintings for exhibition... when you'll get married these all are going in ur dowry :P..
Insignia, You're in for a treat. I went for classes to a lady in Indiranagar only. Give me your e-mail ID for more details.
gils, should've known you would never give me a 'proper' compliment. Nice. I like the insult. But don't forget - Pot always calls the kettle black!;-p
Shilpa Garg, Thank Yous!!!:-))It isn't rainy season here either. These are just occasional showers(mango showers).
evanescentthoughts, LoL..The blue circle is akin to a halo - signifying divine presence you see!!;-)
Swaram, thaaaank You!!!!
V, Of course. I should be the one thanking you!!:)Thanks for reading!
UmaS, I totally forgot about Mothers Day till I read your post last night. Thanks:-)
vimmuuu, thank you !! Even if you offered to buy it , I'd think twice before selling it to you. I've read wayyy too much about your fetish for bathrooms & toilets!!!!!:-D
sonal, heee..thanks!!!! I'll hold a pvt exhibition for you. Speaking of dowry,I know I'm pushing it too far by saying this but isn't the painter's worth much more than the paintings will ever be;-D My only chance to show-off(couldn't resist)!
You really have talent lady. You answered almost all my questions. Not to be hung, not for sale. Is this for a home in the future?
Beautiful...
I love the theme. Krishna, Yasodha my fav.

Well done.
You paint too? That's awesome!!!!
This one is great. You are a pro man!
Arkansas Patti, I took classes for this, so not really talented. But perseverant yes :) Oh future home-thats a possibility when it happens!! ;)
chitra, my favourites too. I like Radha-Krishna also!!:)
Hari, thank you.
The Double Inverted Commas, Thaaank you!!! You are too sweet really :-))

Lovely! :)
We need to meet. seriously.. i sooo want to learn this. I promised my friend a yoshoda krishna painting n haven't been able to get to it yet. Do u have a larger pic / design that u could mail or post?
I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE the painting and the frame enhances it.
Samvedna, yes really.. I like all pictures/paintings of Radha-Krishna :)
Shilpa, thanks!!!
Insignia, will mail you.
Reflections, Precisely-they are all like my babies!!!;-)
MindfulMeanderer, thank you, thank you & thank you!!!!;-D You can click on the image for a larger view. Will mail you a copy also.But yeah, we should meet smtime... and soooon:)I pass your area everyday btw.
beautiful :) girl paint more! please do..
and thanks for the link. I got to know so many nice things about Mysore painting. and btw what is Pure Mysore Gold Leaf? came across on the website.
did you try Van Gogh's near Trinity circle? They have pretty good frames.
very nice pic
Shruthi, U know the gold foil used for mysore painting is so so fine (it cannot be lifted with fingers). Has to be picked up & placed with a wet brush. They call this gold-pure mysore gold leaf. For Tanjore, silver foil dipped in gold is used. In my photo here, the gold isn't even properly visible as it is wafer thin. See their jewels.
I've been to Van Gogh's and have given one of my glass paintings couple of yrs back. They're amazing & have very stylish frames but mostly for oil/acrylic works. I got the chettinad frame in Tarang Arts (Jayanagar). For my other paintings, I go to Frame Define(JP Nagar-right opp. Rangashankara)!:)
sm, thank you!!
WOW!! Awesome! Frame compliments the painting very well! Are you planning an exhibition of sorts sometime soon?
so so so good....are u sure it is not for sale??
Uma, you're giving me grand ideas ;-) No exhibition planned. Maybe, or should I say hopefully I'll be good enough to hold one in the next 5-6 years :-)
Aryan, thank you!! It is way too precious to consider selling :-)
Ro, i have been telling you and will repeat here again. You should do painting more often. Great one for sure! Though you need to master taking a photograph, you are a master in painting.
Who doesn't like rains here.... probably that could be your next subject of art?
Wow lovely!!!! Simply, out-of-the-world :) :) :)
wow that is awesome :D
gal you got talent :) and glad to read to you after a long time :)
Lovely picture and a beautiful frame. This time you are careful enough to say it is not for sale.
Please read my reply to your comments in my post. Thanks.
Hey Ro, do you go to some painting classes or do you know any good ones? I really want to join for some painting classes in Bangalore. Can you help me? :)
Mohan, I think I'll be extra efficient at work today thanks to your comment :-)) I'll post rain paintings when I do one of course. Haven't done any so far. My photography..yes :'( I know.
$$, really?! thanks a lot!!!!:-)
SG, oh you're back! Yeah I cannot sell this for any price! ;-) thanks!!
evanescentthoughts, I learnt in Indiranagar. I'll msg/mail you the details. I don't go anymore though & I don't know any others. Check on sulekha/ask laila for classes near where you live.If you are really serious, Chitrakala Parishad also has some well-designed courses.
Rajlakshmi, I overlooked while replying oops:) thankyous muchs!!!
So much praise must be nauseating. I foresaw this and suppressed any temptation to write good things... Yashoda's saree... well, nothing.. never mind.
What a sweet,beautiful moment you've captured in this painting! Hats off to ur talent! Love it!!!!! :)))
uptake, you cannot stand the thought of me getting all the attention, can you!;-p Every dog has its day so watch out!!!:-)
Indy, That was just what I thought when I saw the picture first-I loved the moment.There's a saying 'Some mothers are kissing mothers and some are scolding mothers, but it is love just the same' (was suddenly reminded of that)!:-)
U cross my area everyday?? Then drop by this week after office. I insist. Mail me ur number asap!!
Wow, what a beautiful picture!!!
Nice painting, the expressions of Yashoda n Krishna have come out wonderfully and the background, especially the scenerary from the windeow is beautifully done with gr8 colour combination....this highlights the two characters more.Thanks for sharing the same.And last but not the least...frame is magnificent :)
MindfulMeanderer, Yus ma`am!
pal, :-) thanks for visiting!!
Urmil Amol, I'm so happy someone noticed the scenery too;-)It motivates me to try more. Hee.. Thanks a ton!!! The frame was like 'icing on the cake' I feel:-)
Wow that is really a beautiful picture...I really liked it..thanks for sharing it with us !
