sunday 7 aug sketches...

Was planning to sketch this perticular area for many days, but rains had prevented it!!..thi sunday it was not raining,so had a chance to sketch the rasta peth area in pune, my home town.But while driving back saw few spots and just parked my car and drew from sitting inside car !..the patches of washes are preplanned ,the sketches happened on them randomly!...enjoy them......

sketches - drawn from the car.

It was a rainy day today, so i just parked my car at two spots and sketched the surrounding views, but in a very graphical way, as it was difficult to see and sketch sitting at a drivers seat.
the colour pathes are done at home prior to the sketches..sketches are just done using the graphical value of the coloured patches....

mountain resort.

I spent a day in montain resort near my place in india.these are some of the impressions of the scenic views i have tried to capture.Its rainy season in this part of india, so sitting in a covered sitout and drawing is easier...The sketches are done watercolour and ink..these are not detail drawings but my impressions of the surroundings.

mrutunjayeshwar TEMPLE.

I painted/ sketched this historic temple complex this sunday 15 may 2011.In india, temples are not only religious places, but much more than that.In this complex, there is a place for small scale marriges, and other ceremonies like naming of the babies etc.Its also a place for eledrly people to cometogether and have a social interaction.many young ones come and study in the tranquil atmosphere of this temple.And ofcourse painters like us can also sit and do our art.In short, its a great place for all agegroups...
