Can this little girl get a hug?

There was a 12 year girl who just relocated from a small town to big city , from a house of 4 to house of 12 where everyone are just big and judging. Yes now she is living in a joint family where she met them yearly once for festivals before. she was like a free bird and loved by her neighbours and friend in her little town. And a best student in her whole class and loved by teachers too..
suddenly she looked so small in her new big school and all big eyes at home looking at her with big expectations.. her parents are busy as usual they just wanted good scores in the report card.. here comes her first test result she had become an average student. which was a shock for all expecting eyes... she could barely adjust with new friends ,teachers and whole new environment.. she started getting scolding's for from everyone at home.. some used to just taunt.. which made the situation worse and she even failed in one subject.. everyone dumped her and she has left with only insults.. her parents were too worried and put her to 2 coaching classes.. when she wont even get a time to breathe.. and one tuition teacher started to verbally insult her and another just physically punished her.. by that time she was really very far from her parents emotionally and had no friends or anyone to share with.. she was even insulted by her teacher badly.. somehow she scored more than an average and could get a seat in an English medium high school.. it was even more tougher for her most of them spoke English and she was from kannada medium.. her classmates insulted her, nobody was ready to be her friend.. though she was good in other activities. She used to participate in each and every competitions.. got little rewards for art crafts and acting too but that really dint matter.. her situation at school and home was same.. few of her classmates even thought speaking to her may lower their reputation and she was a bad luck to them.. then she meets an angel friend of her who really understood bit of what she was going through and helped her with English and gave her company always so that none of the insults hurt her... she somehow recovered by the time she was in college.. she continued her studies with better grade.. she was no more an old depressed girl.. but even now she is scared of those big eyes and sometimes thinks she is useless. I wish I could just go back hug that little ME..

whenever we hear someone in sad we try hard and put up all words in us to console them .. don't we deserve the same when we are sad and hurt. we should love over selves as we do to others..

Whom can I blame for this? society demanded just marks, so the parents. May be her whole situation would have changed with someone by her side just to understand what she was going through. or if she was able to stand-up for herself from self hatred.

Do you also want to give a hug to this little girl..?

Ceramic art and pot painting

Here are few ceramic work on pots, I also used m-seal and plaster of Paris:

This is a wall hanging made on playwood piece and was specially made for presentation. I had only one day and just wanted to give hand made gift instead of ready made,

This particular pot was thought by one of my lovely chikkamma, I call her akka, though she is very young and energetic;-) . It took me almost 3 months to finish this, since I had long breaks in between, If we sit continuously, It can be done in maximum 15 days. I just love this and planing to replicate one more. Looks beautiful in the corners of the main hall;-)

Above one is painted using ceramic tubes also the flowers I placed is a natural one painted in golden. In between blue flowers are made of socks material.

Bottle art

Bottle guard art

I found another fruit just looked like bottle guard, which my grand father said they were used in preparing a typical Indian musical instrument called 'Pungi' .  It seems snakes will dance for that sound , I have seen in movies;-). I don't know the exact name of it. It was getting wasted in an old site, they had fired half of the dry plants. Here are few arts done using it:

My yoga class experience

Recently I joined yoga class. It is a free yoga class thought by well experienced teachers. I had discontinued yoga since I fell into professional life. Now I am starting to experience how Important is yoga to body. Though I had heard and read about yoga from the childhood, it was only a theory. I started going to yoga classes in my college days, just to keep my body shape well. First day it was very painful all over body, since I joined middle of the batch . My body was so much adjusted to comforts, Within a week of regular exercise body started becoming loose and free. Especially after started Sun Salutation (Soorya Namaskara). For Rathasapthami we were to do 108 times, So we started increasing counts day by day. When it reached 60 leg was so painful, I could not sleep tonight. I applied coconut oil and rock salt mixture(Note: Best remedy for leg cramp, it vanished withing 10-15 minutes) and again I went to yoga class next day. Today on the special occasion of 'Rathasapthami, I was able to do 108 times Soorya Namaskara, without much stress. As we were doing we went on receiving energy. Surprisingly most of them said on this special day they were not tiered at all, usually they used to get little tired even though with regular practice. Now I feel active and throughout the day, it increases willingness as I experienced it. I am yet to explore this vast subject called 'yoga', as I experience more, I will share it here. I feel everyone must do this exercise(sun salutation) at least 5 minutes a day. With his energy whole earth is surviving, It is a small gratitude to our father(Sun). Also it is said that, it activates all the chakras and blood cells in our body and make it receptive.

DIY Newspaper Wall Hanging

Well this art is made out of newspaper rolls. I painted it with acrylic metallic colors. Metallic color gives metal string like effect. This is also very easy and anyone can do, but it consumes more time. 

Method:

1) Take a medium sized mirror.

2) Cut the cardboard into mirror size and cut another one, one inch bigger than mirror (this is required to stick the paper rolls).

3) Now let us make paper rolls, cut the newspaper full sheet into 4 pieces vertically, Now roll it from corner, so that it takes maximum length.

4) Paint the rolls with metallic color.

5) Once it is dry cut the single roles into two pieces, one long and one little short(we would need total 30 rolls it depends on mirror size).

6) Keep a base and stick mirror size cardboard on the center of it, now stick a mirror upon that.

7) Stick the paper rolls one by one.

8) Finally decorate it with small mirrors and pearls.

9) For hanging it on wall stick a hook behind, I used metal hook which is used in photo frames.

Floating candle pot painting

From a long time I was wishing to have this at home. It seems it is a symbol of happiness at home. Lighting diya everyday reminds us to light our inner self, that is the main symbol of lighting diya in front of god everyday evening before sunset. To remove darkness outside as well as praying god to remove our inner darkness. I had brought this long time back but had no time to paint it. I also had to protect it from my naughty kid (however she broke it in two days, I have to make another one;-)). Finally I could finished it quickly in half an hour with simple aquarium painting:

Without flowers it was looking like an aquarium;-)
