Art work

Shillu :: What you see here are the tools of Bidri artist who is half way thru creating a beautiful handicraft. Birdi ware originates from Bidar in Karnataka state (India). The metal used is a blackened alloy of zinc and copper inlaid with thin sheets of pure silver. You can read more about this unique art here.

VJ :: Look at this picture. Walking into this palatial building called the 'Chatsworth' castle, I was pleasantly amazed with this image on the wall. Now, look at this picture one more time, you think it is real or a painting? I would not put my money on someone who would call it real?

A miniature plan & some wires

Shillu :: I am back to my temple series. this is a miniature carving on the temple wall. Looks like the sculptor first made this miniature & then put his plan to work on the roof of the main temple. Brilliant planning & execution, don't you think so?

VJ :: Weird Wired World- this picture was taken on my trip to Greenwich museum. We live in such a wired world today that I cannot imagine anything without wires, wires and more wires.
