Paper Boats Still Life

I am painting variety of objects. I don't have any style as yet hence it is easy for me to venture out of 'comfort zone'. It is fun and it is learning too, though my learning process may look very slow ;). Here is the new painting. I still have problem with taking good picture of paintings with dominat blue color. It doesn't come out half as good as original. But here it is anyway.Thanks for looking.

Paper Boats

This one is fresh on easel. It is for my nephew, Malhar, who seems to visit my blog from India. My figuratve must be too much for him ;) . Hope you like this Malhar.

Figurative

This is another I did last summer.

Lemon shadows

This one was tough. I felt very happy after I could get the shadow on the kettle right. I use this small kettle to keep my cooking oil. It is easy to pour and easy to refill. Thanks for looking.

Golden Apples

I got beautiful shadows with these apples. Currently I am thinking of many subjects for my big paintings and feel like starting many projects at a time but I know that it is not a good idea. So I will finish the one on the easel first and then the second in that series which I have already composed in my mind. I need to speed up if I have to keep with my list. Thanks for looking.

Dandelion in a glass

Ya, dandelion again and from last summer, again. I am painting but want to post the new once in a bunch. Thanks for the kind words. Your comments are valuable to me. Have a great day.

Dandelion

Last two days my daughter was home and I couldn't do much work.( Though I did start one big painting.) She is a busy toddler and she rules here. I know it is cheating but I am posting the one which I did last summer. In this very small painting 6"x4" of dandelion bud, I see full drama as it starts to open up to see the whole new world. It is framed and hanging on the wall.

Fresh photo

On this cold morning I spotted one beautiful dear in my backyard when I made my first cup of morning tea and was about to sip it when I looked out...

Primal Attraction

I am paying attention to get values right in my paintings and it is fun. When I put a dab of paint on canvas I am thinking how it will look in black and white and take care it doesn't look flat. More dog paintings coming, I am not yet done with that but in the meanwhile, here is a filler. Good for Valentine's Day fever,don't you think?

Dog 1

I have not painted dogs before hence plan to do a series of 6 paintings on dogs. I think I am getting better. My imagination has left me for last few days, hence the dumb title.

My Valentine

Yes another pair of pears, don't yet have enough of them.

pear up.

My most fulfilling shopping is visiting (any) Art Store and visiting farmers' Market downtown. I don't get the same kick out of visiting star markets. This weekend we visited both these places in one go and shopped till we both dropped. Came home with dozens of bags and I am painting ever since. These are pears from farmers' market.

Snowscape

Just when I was thinking that the snow is all gone and I can see the green lawn in my backyard, it has showed again here today. I am not much of a snow lover,though I love watching snow when it has just started falling from a big bay window we have here. That is my favourite place to sit. Snow is beautiful but not practical, think of all those homeless people out there and you'll agree. Snow and snowscape. Thanks.

Lonely pomegranade

It is difficult to say what I really liked and what I didn't about this painting but I have mixed feelings about it. It was there in the fruit basket for a long time before I painted it. Thanks.

The Fish

I have done this last summer but decided to post it now. Right now I am thinking of a lot of subjects, lot of compositions I want to do but I actually end up making one or two each day. That too because my standard canvas size is 6x8 and 8x10. I wonder how much other artist are able to accomplish in a day. I know there must be a lot of variations but it would be interesting to know.

This is another of my favorite. I had fun painting this. The picture I have posted doesn't do any justice with it. I had a good painting day yesterday but will post those things some other day.

My digital art

I made this digital drawing a few days back and had forgotten about it. I thought I'll post this one as well as my ink-pen drawings and other creative stuff on this blog. I like fabric as much as like oil colors, pens and pencils. Anything created by human hands is beautiful for me and I value it. So you will see differnt unrelated projects on this blog. Hope you like it.

Rainbow Kingfisher

I think I have made a good start for the new year by concentrating on painting more than ever but I have not yet aquired the art of taking perfect photographs and hence don't feel like posting them on blog. I hope to be better at that this year. My love of painting started as a love of sketching and making doodles. However I don't make drawings too often. This year I want to spend more time doing that. I must sharpen my tools. No good painting without a good drawing.

Hope you like this rainbow kingfisher. Thanks.
