Right now this beautiful painting by Kalyani Ganapathy called Ponnuku Mallipoo Asai translated 'A little girl likes jasmine flowers' adorns the orange wall in my daughter's room.The story~
Last year when I featured Kalyani's work here, I fell in love with this little girl called Mayuri in the painting, she so needed to be in my daughter's room.
We were in the process of moving to our new home and I had already visualised how the painting would look in my daughter's room. Kalyani has used acrylic on canvas and has really made the little girl come to life:-)Will post more pictures from my daughter's room, which still is work in progress.
Do visit Kalyani's site Surfkye, to see some of her gorgeous work.

beautiful painting... somehow this painting by Kalyani reminded me of the poem/nursery rhyme in Tamil :
Nila Nila odi va,
Nilammal odi va,
Malia medhu yeri va,
Maligai pu kondu va.
You have placed it so well in her room!
Kaberi- Oh! Thanks do much for reminding me of that poem. So apt:-)
Thanks:-))
BEAUTIFUL ! Would love to see the finished room .. I am also in the process of re-vamping my son's room ; but I have a one tough cookie for a 3-yr-old-customer .... any painting or wall art has to be of something -on-wheels !!

That poem inspired us to keep our daughter's name Nilavi:-)
oh how lovely.
i would love to see more of Mallika's room.
Nethra wants elephants and butterflies in her new room. i wish i could paint as well as you do :) but am gonna make an attempt. i love that you made mallika's room very indian too.
Arch,
I think ypu've just multiplied the beauty of the painting by placing it against the orange wall.. beautiful..
Looking forward to pics of ur angel's room..
Hi Archana!! I am an architect and interior designer and have just recently started following your blog and I love it!
The colours are beautiful and very inspring! great stuff!
I want a daughter just so that I can put that painting in her room! :) That's how much I like the painting and the idea.
Hi Arch,
I think I am begining to enjoy the work of this artist ... so beautiful and so innocent ... you are sure sowing he seeds of a great collector .
Hmmm ... I wonder what's in the air ... all mums seem to be in the process of kiddy room revamp ... I am still smelling of turpentine and paint from Sarah's room :)
wow this is so colourful and full of life. I loved it....
That is one of my fav pics from SurfKye Archana. 'Ponnuku Mallipoo Asai' - is that Tamil? It's sounds pretty similar to Tulu which is spoken a lot in Mangalore, where I come from!
What I love abt this pic is that she has brought out the image of the "little south indian girl" so well!
its beautiful and well placed too.
love the colours
A lovely painting. Looking forward to seeing more pictures of Mallika's room. I have to think of doing up my kids room too. Still working on the idea!
Hi Arch,
You are a decor queen, wish i had a daughter to hang this picture.
Cheers
Divya
Thank you everyone. And thanks Arch once again for sharing 'ponnuku mallipoo asai' with the world :)
Kalyani's work is really cool. There are so many things to like about this painting- the mallipoo, the beautiful brown skin of the girl, and the colours.
She is very talented! Beautiful work!
