An Off Day

Boats make such an amazing subject for painting and I so wanted to paint them.Unfortunately,these days I do not get much time to paint. Even a few days break from painting made me feel all rusty.The hot temperatures here made this watercolor piece even more difficult for me.The paper dried up so quick and I couldn't manage to get the desired result.I also ruined the paper at some places.:( I wish and hope to learn the art of time management too so that I get to paint more frequently.:) 

Down The Muddy Lane

While painting this piece I was reminded of the hot sunny days ahead.People have been waiting for spring   desperately in some parts of the world but here in my state,in India,winter is very short lived.Before you actually feel it,its gone.This year though,it lasted a little longer than usual.Woolens finally had their turn to see the outside world.But now again,one can feel the rising temperature,the harsh sun and hot and humid weather will be soon here again.:(

Rest For a While

This goes as a submission to Virtual paintout.The recent location chosen was County Clare,Ireland.Such a beautiful country it is(reminded me of the movie P.S.I love you).The greenery is mesmerizing,lovely cottages and I could spot so many locations that I wanted to paint.But this tractor won the race this time.But definitely I would love to paint some other locations too for this month's submission, as an artist is allowed maximum of three submissions.
