Kadi Locked

Why dont some people do not like closed doors and more the locked ones..I love this subject

pani baya

hard working women always retain good shape...what say you..

Murud House

This must be 33rd attempt of this particular spot. Don’t get surprised, I always do 2-3 attempts of most paintings .this one i do as a demo in my watercolor course to illustrate direct approach as well as various color and light relations. Fortunately I can still amuse myself by trying something new in that each time.

Ice break

i do amuse myself now and then...any one who can guess correctly how this is done will get a prize ..on april first.

3 girls on FC college road in rain

obviously you can see 3 girls..you can see thay are on the road..you can see it is raining
but for those who dont know the road is FC college road.FC stands for Fergussion College yet not many people call it FC road but FC college road.
Full sheet watrecolor and had to hold my breath controling wet in wet effects..like it?

Moodyscape

Mood and atmosphere in landscape is always assiciated with quality of light painted.
Early morning or evening shots with misty or foggy look with most objlects againt light create a drama of light and we tend to call it mood in the atmosphere.on the other hand wonderful landscapes or busy colorful streetscapes in crystal clear whether or strong sunshine hve differnt mood.they are not as often praised as mood carrying ones.my argument is "mood" is not just against light ,misty atmospheric perspective.anyway..
here is one of my "mood"scape.

Wai cross

watercolor for a change on my blog where i 've been mostly uploading acrylic stuff lately.
Arches is really the best watercolor paper available today.It can retain your washes wonderfully even if you go glazing over it many times.

Archway Blue

It is true that many people around here paint their walls blue and as long as it facinates me my blue phase will continue.

Fortunately i was on the right time because soon afterwards the guy in the house also painted the stones around the arch in the blue-paint left with him.

Green Door

The same old spot ..but a colorist version.If some of you remember the B&W version

Turban Man Paint off..so far...Face it

The top two are by David Lobenberg ..what he has done so far..,whom I am "facing" in this paint off ..He is indeed a bold colorist and good with faces.

and below some 3 attemptss I am still trying .Usually i do more than 1 attempts and realize probably first was the best.This time I am not sure probably first is not as good as third which is better than the second which is not as good as first ..got it?

When it come to painting Face..face it, there is always a tie between a painterly rendition and getting likeness.

Masters are those who achive both.. like Charles Reid who make our life unhappy

You might wonder all three men look different..Ya ,most of the time people whom i portray refuse to look like their portraits...not my fault..

Pl. visit David's bog.. http://davidlobenberg.blogspot.com/ for his updated work.

Chak De India

Whad you lookin at?..sould I call it a mix media
The painting is rather of illustrative nature..something I wanted to do very culturally representative .

chatterbox call

Mother in law or sister in law ,whoever on the otherside, my mdel's not gonna move away for an hour for sure.

I am not happiest with the composition though one of my artist friend liked it.what says you..?

After discussion

Another one.,rather small ..deliberately sketchy..I have stopped ..am happy

Bike..bike ..bike

So here are the other attempts (may be not finished as yet)from the paint off with David,I have managed to click some stages ,so some of you might find how not to overwork..

To see my other attempt and David's wonderful painting follow the link http://davidlobenberg.blogspot.com/

dicussion

Almost a sketch,I ve stopped ,fairly large, acrylic on gessoed panel

Middle Room

Sometimes if the objects are less defined the pleasure of shapes tones and color can give us a better feeling of visual sensetion.anyone to agree?

Good Morning

My wife has left home early for work and the tea is not ready like everyday.She was in a hurry and tea ,suger bottles were not refilled so she left without having tea.the moral is now i have to hunt for the supplies and make tea if I want one.
All the same painting these empty bottles was fun.

Keerti's Kitchen

I am not sure wheather this one is a complete painting but I have signed it already just to make sure that after I go over it again I wont be ruining the original idea too much

cow

I am learning to paint..

Attempt one

My computer C drive had gone crash but fortunately my hardware friend managed to recover most, and now I am happy and relieved.

My friend David Lobenberg and me, we have decided to do a painting from this source photo of mine.

Many times when attempting a new painting I end up doing two or three versions at the same time trying kind of different approaches .this time is no exception. This is one of them .Not sure this one is complete or already overworked. I have tried to simplify the clutter behind and removed the ad poster showing "Officer's choice”. I am no officer neither this one is of my choice
