WOMAN WITH JHUMKAS & PARROTS
16x20 ins. Acrylic. April 5, 2010. Jhumkas are one of my favourite traditional Indian ear-rings in the shape of domes with tiny bells. My early childhood memories were flooded with green parrots, literally.... they would swarm into the mango trees, melting into the foliage. I would spend hours counting the red beaks.
