• ART : In the country

  

  I did this painting two days ago, using a limited palette of ultramarine blue, yellow ochre, alizarin red, cadmium yellow, and white. While I was tempted to use just one more color (I so needed Burnt umber), I did not. At the end of two hours of painting, this is how the canvas looked like.…

• Art: Imperfectly perfect

  

  This is my second oil painting. I call it ‘Imperfectly perfect’ – the image is inspired by a painting I saw on Pinterest. With this painting done, I want to go back to drawing and shading. I think it’s important every once in a while ( once a year or 6 months) to practice sketching…

• Art: Ganga Aarti

  

  It took me four and a half months to complete this painting- not because the painting was tough but, because I always found enough excuses not to sit at my desk and paint- first, I complained that the weather was too warm to paint. Then, when I moved my desk to a smaller room with…
