Sunday morning!
Half the world waits for Sunday morning to laze around, to sleep till late..and here we were, restless to paint!!
Sharda, me and our teacher/artist, Amol sir decided to venture out to Borivali national Park to paint en plein air!!!
We braved it to the park in a rickshaw, but alas! rickshaws not allowed inside! so there we were hiking our way to one of the villages in the interior of this mammoth patch of green in the midst of the fast and furious speed of Mumbai city...
It was a beautiful morning, the sun at its best, shadows a dream for every cameraman and painter..and this village, neatly tucked away under a canopy of trees and its own private stream too:-))
What followed was a series of photos and a couple of paintings too:-))
'All together' watercolros on Arches paper Size 12"x16"
Trees and greens at National park, Mumbai on a hazy morning..
'Under my tree'
A small village tucked under the mighty oak..
Watercolors on Arches aper Size 12"x16"
I personally feel these en plein air paintings could be better..it was very hot and rustic there and somehow these paintings only captured the haziness of the morning and the cool of the shade..
Well, again, another day...
Of course, the real adventure was sitting with Amol Sir on his bike to make our way back towards the gate as there were no buses or sign of any transport!!
Anything for painting!!
