Here is some of my other works.I trying to post most of my significant works..just have a look..
These are all outdoor studies.It was real fun..Not only from the point of view of reaching the level of perfection at this subject but also from a point of view, more abstract! This is the only medium of creating art that gave me the chance to come in direct contact with people around me,the environment they live in. It gave me an insight into our society.Into the daily chores of common people,how they live ,how
they laugh and cry! Its an awesome experience!
What I used to do is first decide in the weekend where to go! There are plenty of places worth sketching.I used to single out any one or just get out of home and set out for any place that came to mind at random! Kind of quest for the unknown! And generally the later was more exciting because you never know what was there in store for you! And after reaching there I usually looked for a suitable place to sit and sketch and then start another journey on paper with pencil.I also used water colour to get the shadow and tone of the picture. Sometimes I used black Chinese in
k.
Loads of memories are attached to these sketches! Each art work has a separate story with it! Its really amazing in terms of how much experience I gathered during these sketching sessions!I not only captured what is in front me,my subject and what is on the paper but also in my mind the happenings around me etched an impression.It developed in me,sort of a reflective approach toward human behaviour! I remember during a similar session when I was busy sketching a old structure in front of me, an young man from a near by tea stall (by the way,in India we have lots of street side stalls of tea vendors.they prepare tea and breakfast also.But not like fast food chains in Canada or N.America.They are smaller and more close-to-heart in approach.Something like little hot dog stalls in downtown.) was very happy that he was going to his home at some village of different state in vacation.To my surprise he broke into an impromptu song and jig on the street in joy.And every time these moments served as a breather to me after hours of exhaustion of sketching ( I used to sketch on a spot for almost a whole day) .
I always made sure that I didn't sketch with blind eye to the surroundings.So everything around me had an impact on me.
