Keeping it Real with the colours..


Its been a while....this last year and a half has been a different one to say the least!.....but I have been away from writing...….and more of painting......

During this time, I got married....and also moved into a new home, redecorated and started my own home garden!....  landscaping has always been a side passion.
Its great weather in Kenya....all year round Sun... no seasons, great for the annuals... the flowers are blooming ! I have kept some perrenials that are also doing well.... shall share some photos of the garden soon.....

So colour adds a burst of energy to a room... a spark of delight or even a calming or energetic feeling depending on which colours....Getting to Know Taskin : from your assessments...of my artwork my interests... my subject choices....
Which colour do you think I like most?Why?

…..

Ill give you some time to answer that! ….


Meanwhile .....

In the last year and a half, there has been a lot going on....lets look back!!…..

The Almighty is Great ! I feel blessed.... and I am grateful to Him....
