Pure pigment, pure bliss…Pastels are simply irresistible! So finally after almost a zillions days I am back at my easel, pastelling! It is therapeutic, I must say.
Clicked a picture of these in a garden, don’t know what these are called. Let me know if someone figures it out!

My son is now 2 years and 2 months old, and well, here is something from him as well. He is doing quite a bit of doodling now. Look at the neat and crisp scribbles…looks like he has a fascination for fruits n veggies. Though he likes to draw planes and birdies too. Infact, one day he surprised me by drawing “me”
That was kind of cute though. Complete with my shoes…

Lately I have been thinking of experimenting a little…been wanting to paint a simple/abstract like painting. This one is a small approx 10″x10″ of a bouganvillea, done on neutral gray canson paper. Before I started off, I was quite unsure about what it would it look like. Well, I can say, I am quite happy with the result!

Another one from a picture on Wetcanvas Reference Library.
I really enjoyed working on the background haze…

A bowl of lemons…lemon has always inspired me.
I like the smell, the texture and ofcourse the taste!

Yet another Floral Portrait!
This time though, the color palette is very intense.
Nature is so AMAZING! It’s a pleasure to see these wonders of nature come alive under my fingers

I painted this one from a picture posted in the Reference Library of WC (Wetcanvas.com).
It was simply irresistable! Loved the play of light and shade.
