Medium
Painting - Oil On Stretched Canvas
Description
This oil painting was done on a 24 x 36" stretched canvas. This is a very intuitive piece and more like a children story that came into my mind. Here kula is the dog and Pani is a cat's ghost belonging to a child and the ghost follows around the happy dog who is happy to jump and get the plumeria flowers from the Plumeria tree to make children happy. When I was painting this painting I was sharing house with roommates who had a little daughter and when she came into my room while I was painting, I asked her what did she see and she told me she saw Kula and Pani's Ghost, Kula her dog and Pani her cat who had died recently. So I titled this piece as Kula and Pani's ghost. She was also in love with the color purple since she was very little and when I was mixing colors on the canvas, she saw me mixing blue and red and it became purple and all of a sudden I saw this shine in her eyes on recognition of how the purple was made from red and blue in front of her eyes. Its amazing to see that recognition in children's eyes when they are first learning about a concept. I gifted this painting to that precious child when I moved out and she was really excited to receive this piece of art as a gift. I hope she keeps growing and learning and spreading the light in her life around her even though I don't get to see her much anymore and those years seeing her growing were very precious in my life.

PS---Mukta--I read your story---and it is precious. Maybe you already have children's books---if not---it might be a consideration.

I have thought about it several times, started on it but don't know what stops me, I guess I don't really have real know how and confidence to do it... but hopefully it will happen one of these days!
