A bright morning

One of my earliest painting adventure !! Painted at backyard of my uncle's house, Somwarpet. ೨೦೦೪ ಬೇಸಿಗೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಮಾಡಿದ Painting.

Relaxing Ox

After long time i painted a relaxing oxen. With the combination of warm and cool colors, i hope this painting attracts its viewers.

ಕೆರೆಯ ದಡದಲ್ಲಿ ...

ಮತ್ತೊಂದು ಹಳೆಯ painting. ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ charcoal ಬಳಕೆ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದೇನೆ.

Once upon a time

೧೯೯೮ ರ ಒಂದು painting. ಬೆಟ್ಟ, ಗುಡ್ಡ ಅಂತ ತಿರುಗುತಿದ್ದ ಸಮಯ. ಮಲೆನಾಡ ಪಕೃತಿ ಸೌಂದರ್ಯ ಈ painting ನಲ್ಲಿ ತರಿಸಲು ಪ್ರಯತ್ನಿಸಿದ್ದೇನೆ.

This is one of my old painting. There are lot of changes in my understanding of painting, now. But still perspective, composisition has been taken care in this painting.

A village temple

Every other scene in malnad (Western Ghats, Karnataka) inspires me a lot for painting. Predominantly cool colors depicts the cool morning atmosphere around this village temple.

Water in water color

Painting water in water color is a fun. Painting water is simple, Just paint the reflections, you are done. I took a photo of this painting in a bad light. You can observe my shade on the photo. Now, i do not have this painting with me :-(

ಚಳಿಗಾಲದ ಒಂದು ದಿನ !

Water color painting can be tough ! A single picture, i painted 3 times. But still not satisfied with outcome ! Second time, everything went well, but road in the picture became dark. Alas !!! what to do?! One bad (also good) thing about water color painting is, once you paint a portion of paper, you can't "undo" it. This makes water color painting challenging. To become master, one has to know these "secrets" of water color. 

Now coming to my painting, I liked second painting somewhat. So i decided to "fix" it. I tried painting white on dark road. Yes it "fixed" the painting to some extent ! But using white color in water color painting is "prohibited".

Two boats

When we visited Barachukki falls, i asked my colleague to take photo of these lovely boats. I used charcoal for some effects along with water color.
