The Week That Was

What a week it has been. Life has been crazy this past week but I did manage to share with you a part of my life through my posts. Here is a little summary in case you missed out something.

There was a tutorial on how to hide a gray strand of hair right before a party. A very easy and handy tip to save you at the last minute. Read How To Cover A Gray Strand of Hair

Next up was a post on my favourite nail paint. The brand and this particular shade is my all time favourite. To know why and take a look at the swatches check out Sally Hansen 260 So Much Fawn

Then came a dud product, something I had high hopes with but which failed to impress - Patanjali Saundarya Face Wash Review

And then something straight from my heart - a water colour which I call The Unborn

I followed this with a review on another great product from Tvam Naturals - Tvam Lavender Ylang Ylang Sunscreen

And finally my favourite fragrance - something I ought to have reviewed ages ago but better late then never - something you girls will love - Adidas Fruity Rhythm Eau De Toilette

How did your week go? Which of the above products have you tried and which post was your favourite? Do leave your comments and make my week come to a nice end :)

The Unborn (A Painting)

After a long time I did a water painting. This time what I painted was quite different from my usual attempts.

The base of this painting is a doodle where I just closed my eyes and scribbled whatever shapes my hand drew. Once I felt I had scribbled enough I stopped and opened my eyes.

Then I concentrated on all the weird lines that lay in front of me.  And slowly an image started appearing out of these shapes. This is the image I drew over again leaving out lines that did not form a part of the image that I saw.

This was the final image I saw and painted. I call it 'The Unborn'. I saw a mother holding a new born child but I still called it 'The Unborn' because of the way the image turned out. It seems like the child is still inside the mother wrapped up away from all worldly harm.

I chose green to represent the mother because a mother is the provider all her life for the child. The child is in red - representing the childlike energy. And behind the mother is a yellow hallow - it represents the shielding nature of the mother.

I hope you all like it!
