Simple Times

A Tire, A Street and A Buddy watercolor and ink by Meera Rao
India Art Journal 2015

Simple times and carefree days.  I watched them roll the tire back and forth down a quiet lane, laugh and squeal in delight. Pretty soon they had mastered the art of keeping the tire rolling without a break. I was a witness to a sealing of friendship, memories in the making and developing skills and imagination :) Definitely 'just playing' is really a lot of 'work' as well!

I've been catching up with all of your amazing work Meera ! Your watercolors are so full of color and movement. "Threads that connect" was so nice as well as the story behind it! I also loved the way you painted the hut in "ironing the wrinkles out"... And again thank you for sharing the story behind it! Very interesting...

Hi, philosopher and artist, Meera, You're very thoughtful and create a so cute work of children. You've captured a lovely moment. The quote makes me smile. If we think of adults, hahaha, the quote means...?! Anyway, let us enjoy drawing and painting. Best wishes, Sadami
