After(top) and Before Photos of Repurposed NYC Metro Card Art 'NYC Rabbit Hole' by Meera Rao
When we were in NYC earlier in the month, I grabbed the expired Metro card that my husband was about to throw in the trash can. I had been thinking about the upcoming miniature show and thought it might be fun to paint on the card. Little did I know that there is a fundraiser Single Fare 4 for New York Academy of Art once a year where the Metro card art by artists from all over world is exhibited and sold! I may be late to the party but at least my ideas are not really far out :) I have one more card from that trip to paint on and hoping to get more on my future trips to NYC. I hope I will be able to participate in next year's show !

How interesting! I like what you did to the card. That is quite a challenge to come up with something appropriate. Have fun with it and good luck with the show next year. Maybe you can get some bloggers to send you their expired metro cards. Wouldn't that be nice? Have a beautiful day.
Thanks Carol ! That is a good idea about sending me expired metro cards :)
This is super cool Meera, we never know what can inspire us for our creativity flow!
Thank you very much Padmaja! So true -the question is how do stay open to all that ?
