I have been hit by the blues but not the sad kind. The color Blue seems to be present everywhere - Blue skies, the national flag, cotton candy flavored ice-cream and one of my good friends even has the Hindi translation of the word blue in her name.

Simple yet element in beauty & form. Peacocks are a fascination of mine, and you certainly did a masterful job in this watercolor painting for just picking up the brushes. However, I tend to notice that our artistic strength comes out in full force when combating the blues.
