This is ship on sea done in powder colurs in the year 1996. I did this in a competetion held in our office on the occassion of Sports Club Annaul day celebrations.
It took three hours to complete.As my friend Kameswari posted one of may recent Rangolis I wanted to share with you one of my rangoli collections.
Now I doubt I may not redo it again.
This floral kolam was done during Navratri on Panchami day..
Gift, not necessarily articles,fancy items ,money. But Love ... or atleast a smile will make the world wonderful !
This was drawn for our apartment children on the occasion of Ganesh chaturthi
This Rangoli was drawn for Gowri Ganesha festival celebrated in our Association this year.... Let me know your views:-)

The nine days are usually filled with visitors who arrive home , eat “sundal “, sing songs, comment on the collection and go home.Those who keep “kalasa” do puja every day and celebrate it in all religious zeal. To me however, I am more into the art and the cultural aspect of the festival and helps me connect with my roots..
The first nine days are a time of prayer, feasting and social gathering. The last day – Vijayadashami – is a day of renewal or new beginning. Here's a look at the different ways in which India celebrates.
