Diamond Stars...

The jeweler allows me to wear the sapphire blue lake on my finger, the emerald green leaves around my neck, and take the citrine sunset with me wherever I go. Jewelry has become my daytime link to nature in an office with no windows. And if I have to work late, there's nothing like diamond stars and a pearl full moon against an onyx night sky. ~Astrid Alauda, "Office With No Windows

    Hi Aarti,
    Even though I do not post comments to your blog eachtime, I try to send you a message each time I view your blog. I really like this painting. Is the subject wearing a sari? Nice attention to the details in the jewelry and the design in the fabric is well done. As always your paintings lift my spirits, I always smile when I see them.
    Best wishes,
    Trish

    Thanks so much Trish that you appreciate my drawings so much...yes the lady is wearing a saree..she is actually an actor in the Indian Film Industry..i found her pic in a magazine...posing for a Diamond jewellery ad...she looked very pretty...that is what made me paint her.

    Really feel happy that my paintings cheer you up...looking forward to viewing your latest art work as well...!!
