Repurposed

Repurposed 12x16watermedia by Meera Rao 

One day in April while on my daily walk (before the fractured foot!) I came across a lush green plant growing inside an abandoned and marooned falling apart boat . I just loved the resilience of the plant and the colors still hanging on to the boat.  There was so much drama  and beauty! Nature never hesitates to creatively repurpose  :) 

I used transparent watercolors, casein, and watercolor pencils.

Bone-afide Good Story!

My Gucci Boot!  watercolor and ink By Meera Rao 
Change afoot 
Bone-afide good story
Even with a Kneerover,
fractures are still what they are cracked up to be!
Brace-ing myself for a few more days 
before I am
foot-loose and fancy free
Till then Lame  jokes & puns 
keep me hopping around! 
Funnbone and humerus acting up ;) 

It is has been almost six weeks since the 5th metatarsal on my left leg broke - a "dancers' fracture"(it doesn't care that I am not a dancer!) I keep busy sketching, painting, reading, surfing the net, napping and coming up with puns! So far I have done two sketches recording my status- one of my 'kneerover'  and yesterday of my feet in their respective 'boots'. I am walking with 'boot' more and more now- using the kneerover  only when I get tired.
