Fulfillment (The Embrace)-30.12.2012

Good Afternoon,

I have some interesting Arts to share with you.  These are my oil paintings.  The original artist of these paintings was Gustav Klimt.  He was born in Baumgarten, near Vienna in Austria-Hungary in 14 July 1862 and died on 6 February 1918.  He was a famous painter and illustrator.  He was the founder of the school of painting known as the Vienna Sezession, embodies the high-keyed erotic, psychological and aesthetic preoccupations of turn-of -the-century Vienna's dazzling intellectual world.

Gustav Klimt painted a number of works in a similar gilded style. His artwork namely The Kiss, oil and gold leaf on canvas;  Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I, oil, silver and gold on canvas; The Tree of Life;  Lady with Fan; Fulfillment (The Embrace); The Sunflower etc.

I had painted 2 pieces of Fulfillment (The Embrace).  One piece was painted on a board and the other on a canvas.

My 1st Piece - Fulfillment (The Embrace)

Hopefully I will paint more of these paintings.  Just something similar but not exactly the same.

Thank you and Happy New Year to you and your family!  May the New Year bring you good health, happiness and success.

Bye!

Paper Mache Elephant-10.12.2012.

A Very Good Evening to Everyone!

 

In school we used to make paper plate out of newspapers.  I still remember we made our own starch and soaked pieces of newpaper into the water and moulded them on a plate, layers by layers using the starch to form a plate.  This method is call Paper Mache Craft.

 

Paper Mache is one of the most inexpensive craft and it is a bit messy but if you have ideas and creativities you can make a lot of things out of it. For example you can make bear, butterfly, mushroom, jaw, flower etc.  I have made an Elephant using Paper Mache technique.

My Baby Elephant is popping out from a window to say "Hi" to you. "HI"!  Hope you like it.

Do try out Paper Mache Craft.  It's Fun!

Bye for now.
