Painting again using oils but this time with my daughter, a beautiful experience!
So proud to see her painting is so much nicer than mine with all the beautiful flowers.
She advised me to add more flowers to my half of the painting as I had only put a few on her insistence and as it is an oil painting I might just do that this weekend.
What a lovely and enjoyable experience 😀
Thank you for this lovely post. Mother and daughter are both so beautiful. Love the p[ainting as well. And if I were to stand on that balcony every night, I imagine the words it would inspire. Do you ever write there?
Thank you Andrew. The whole house has something about it. I rent rooms via airbnb and one journalist who came here for a few weeks said it cured his writer’s block 🙂
I write on that balcony, from mine or sometimes on the rooftop where I have laid out plants and chairs 🙂
Seems the apple in this case hasn´t fall to far off from the tree, quite the little artista you got there
Thank you charly. I am glad she gives in to her artistic inclination 🙂
I´m sure you´re a proud mother
Very much so Charly. I have two other boys but just one girl so it becomes even more special though each of them warms my heart with their unique traits
3 kids? You have your hands full
Yes, very much so and am grateful for that 🙂
Beautiful collaboration, painters, and results
Thank you Derrick 🙂
Amazing artwork with poetic touch 🙂
Thank you Sakthi

Beautiful the both of you. The artwork is outstanding too.
Thank you beautiful Tosha 🙂
You’re welcome. Happy Tuesday!
Thank you and same to you 🙂
What a beautiful and endearing gift the two of you share. Cherish this time together, may the magic & love being created last a lifetime. This post Geetha really warms my heart, much love to you and your family my dear friend ღ
Thank you Mark. It was a beautiful winter afternoon with her and warrmed our hearts too. She is 16 but often comes back to bonding mode although this is the first time in quite a few months that we had a whole afternoon together which did not involve a meal or an outing. Youngsters afe always on the move these days so that was a privileged moment in so many ways and left both of us filled with such a sense of love and warmth I just had to share it 🙂
Much love and light to you and your family as well Mark, my friend ❤️
HA!!! What a joy to see! Thank you for sharing this with me, Geetha! and how beautiful is that young Lady? as beautiful as Her Mother, I see. 🙂
The joy to experience it was so great I thought I should share it. Thank you Eric and I would say she is definitely much much more than her mother 🙂 She used to spend quite some time with me but as a teen – she is turning 17 this year, her occupations have been more with her friends so yesterday was a glorious afternoon really spent only together 🙂
This makes my ❤️ smile!! Two beauties and lovely work💋
Thank you so much Lisa. It was most of all a wonderful afternoon well spent 🙂
I’m sure it was👭💋
❤️💋
Both of you are beautiful and, so are your creations…. 🙂
Thank you Maniparna 🙂
What a great post. Artistic abilities run in the family then!

Thank you Jean-Paul. Yes they do :). We both started drawing at around the same age and are both self-taught. I am hoping she will be able to actually go to art school unlike me whose parents were too conservative to allow me to follow my passion.
Your daughter looks like an Artist.
She has a great future ahead.
My Best Wishes.
Let all Good shower on her.
Shiva
Thank you Shiva. I have to answer you on the posting issue; will do it from my laptop
That is just wonderful! It is so important to give kids these creative opportunities. My mother never painted with me but I was in painting classes at her encouragement. It stuck with me the rest of my life and became an important part of my identity. It’s wonderful that you did it together.
Thank you. My daughter sketches since the age of 5 but she never painted with oils so it was great to do this together. Great that your mother gave you the opportunity to learn. At my home it was not welcome and I am therefore self-taught. Not sure I saw properly your artwork.
These paintings are really good!!! My mom is good with stitching and designing clothes (fashion to say) and I’ve strikingly opposite tastes…
She has really spend years to teach me how to sew… but I’m totally disinterested!
She finally gave up seeing my interests in arts and writing! 😊
Ways to piss Mom off!😅😂
Ah ah ah. I am glad she gave up and did not force you. My daughter and I are self taught so we both just enjoy it. Good your mom likes your other artistic inclination 🙂 🙂
haha, now she appreciates my talent more!😊
That is wonderful! 😊😘
These are gorgeous!
Thank you Christian
Bonded in colors. Great work. .
Thanks Akhila
you are welcome ..:) have a good day
You too Akhila
I am really in awe seeing this beautiful picture of you amd your daughter..its a reminder that life really is good..
Thank you, yes life is really good 🙂
So beautiful…in more ways than one!
Thank you Marissa
Wow! Two very beautiful girls <3
And you both are so good at painting. As Rob said, precious moments between mother and daughter.
Good for you, Geetha <3
Ah ah ah Monica. I would not qualify myself as that. I will be soon 50 so I can hardly be called a girl. My daughter is 16 though and thank you for the beautiful, beautiful!
A girl is a girl, no matter age. Age is just a number.
So, she was born in 1999 or 2000? I am in 1999, in May 🙂
She was born in 1999. She will be 17 this year 🙂
Hey! Like me 🙂
What better way to bond than with any form of art!
Very true Swetha. She likes tango too but I have not been going lately to dance so have not taken her. Should start doing it again outside instead of merely practising my ochos at home
You should!
Two beautiful women, two beautiful artists! One of my songs plays music with me, and it’s such a beautiful mode of communication. These are precious moments, indeed!
Yes Rob, it is a beautiful mode of bonding. How delightful that your son plays music with you. It is so precious to share something together. She is only 16 now but soon she will be gone to live her own life. These moments are unique!
