Definition of capitalism! CTA was significantly delayed today in Chicago and so the #Uber jacked up prices by 135% and #Lyft jacked up by over 250%. I would have thought they would be consumer centric!

Sketching outside on-site today at Kapej Coffee in Chicago, a charming coffee shop with a rustic interior design and a vibrant neighborhood feel.

A watercolor sketch of the upside down bagel half, which i did not eat because I like the top part with all the seasonings. Spending Saturday journaling and eating New York bagels in Chicago.

Just saying - The best kind of days are idli days 🤷‍♀️
With Chicago being so gray for the last few days, cooking delicious Indian meals is a way to spice it up and also let your creative juices flow!!

The mundane wandering for hours ends up in one tiny magical moment. It is in that moment we breathe fully and deeply. We appreciate what we had all along and needed no wandering at all.

Spent too much time over doing a painting. So when it came to ‘Shallow’ for today’s Inktober, this abstract was it.

Various blues and greens watercolor painted abstract sea to show shallow by showing depth instead.

Today’s inktober prompt ‘Celestial’ had me finally settling on drawing the view from my meditation couch - of our other green couch with huge windows, lots of books (both right and left, not in the frame), plants, and Sean’s himachal shawl. Home is a little bit of heaven after all.

Hawk’s claws with delicate feathers - such irony.

Inktober today ‘Scratchy’ had me thinking about this book I read by Sy Montgomery,’The Hawk’s Way’ - an absolute delight to read and experience her passionate encounters with hawks.

Purple flowers swaying with the wind. Flowers make everything better 😊. It was windy that day and I had to walk to the bus stop for 10 minutes but this view made up for it!

Beautiful pattern formed on the roadside from fallen leaves of different colors - I am in awe of these random patterns on the street. Anyone else observed these little paintings all around us?

It was quite a #silentsunday for me, eating homemade #Dhokla and reading this novel.
Also, it rained all day in Chicago today, quite unusual.

“I’d rather wear flowers in my hair than diamonds around my neck.”

I could not help myself but take picture of this gorgeous pink flower in my neighborhood and share with others! Does anyone know what this is called?
