My first Demo (watercolor)



Here is my painting which I made as a demo to few of my friends. It was a very special experience and very satisfying as the painting turned out to be a decent one!

Paintings with experimentation (Water color)





















I am experimenting with different paper sizes and different painting styles - also trying to keep things simple. Here are few examples.









Some grey scale sketches (copic markers)















As I have mentioned before I have started outdoor painting since January. Currently I am trying grey scale sketches to get a feel of the "value". This exercise will help me in both composition as well as colour selection and simplification. Here are few such grey scale sketches.

Two recent experiments (watercolor)



The first one is a structure behind the main building of Pune university. The painting is almost entirely created with synthetic flat brushes and with warm colors as it is peak summer here. I did not want too much depth as the structure is surrounded by rocks on all sides.

The second one is based on a photograph downloaded from net where i have tried to simplify the subject by removing infinite small details. Just tried to capture the value masses.

Simple and Bright (Watercolor)


This is a very simple composition but I love the way viewers' eyes move from left to right and then get pulled back to left again. Do you see it?
