Paintings in London

A bit of promotion, aimed especially at those living in London. My mom is having an exhibition of her paintings in the city today (i.e. 30th June) onwards till 4th of July. It's at the Nehru Centre (8 South Audley Street, Mayfair, London, W1K 1HF). It's central and all, so please try and go have a look, if you can!

In other news, I was in Bangkok over the weekend. Mostly eating fantastic food, drinking and taking some photographs. Shall have photos up soon.

oh this is so beautiful... I especially like their eyes, so mysterious and partly dissolving away, as if they were blinded by sorrow or maybe they themselves gave up seeing because it was too painful...

but I don't live in london :-(
maybe you could show us more of her paintings? I read the introduction about her work and I am so impressed, you have such a wonderful mom :-)

Hi Roxana!

Thanks for the lovely comment! I really should forward it to my mom...

This is one of my favourite paintings done by her. If you would like I could mail you her catalogue? I'm sure you'd like some of her other painting as well.

And yes, she is wonderful :) And I'm very lucky!

what ho, szerelem. i called up nehru centre last tuesday to confirm the exhibition was on, and, reassured by a polite man that indeed it was open till the end of the week, proceeded thither in the afternoon - only to find that there was a private party in progress and i wasn't invited.

sadly, therefore, i wound my way home. and didn't have another chance to visit the centre again.

so please - could you put up some photos of your mum's work? the lovely pic you got here encouraged me to check out the others (alack, in vain).

btw, were your folks ever in kuwait?

Feanor: Hi!! Thanks for taking the trouble to go down...am sorry you couldn't get to see the show though :(

(The exhibition is also in Berlin from the 12th on - any chance you'll be there? :P)

I'll put up more pictures...and same as Roxana if you'd like I'll mail you an older catalogue I have...? (I'm trying to be a good sales person here!)

Also - nope, never in Kuwait. India only.

szerelem, of course I'd love to have it! sorry to answer this so late, but I was away for a few days...
