'In Watercolor' is a 4 country Travelling exhibition, whose Indian chapter will take place in Ranchi from Aug 22 to Aug 26, 2018<br />
This exhibition is very different as its a small format paintings show (8 x 8" to be specific). Artists from the other participating countries will also be arriving in the capital city of Jharkhand and there will be demonstrations and other painting activities by the participating artists on all days of the exhibition<br />
The list of Indian artists include the likes of Milind Mulick, Bijay Biswaal and other prominent watercolor artists of our country and I'm very happy to be a part of it! Really looking forward to this show!<br />
Below is my painting that will be on display there :)<br />

<br />
Very happy to share that The Art of Watercolor magazine’s issue # 31 (June 2018) carries a feature on me along with an interview about my thoughts and style of watercolor painting. And what’s more - The front cover features my bicycle painting, which incidentally, was sold just a few days ago in the US.<br />
I wish to thank the editors and publishers of the magazine for the feature.<br />

The city of joy, Kolkata, has some of the biggest markets in

sold in one such market. This was literally a 'go bananas' moment for me.</div>

Apart from the lovely play of light and shadows, what moved
me to paint this subject was the muse -the old woman sitting on the street
protecting herself from the harsh sun while selling her items. The sun here is
a metaphor for the harsh difficulties she faced in her life. She was forced to
earn bread for her family at an age when she should be enjoying her last few
years with her children and grand children or it may also be that she had no
one now who would care for her.</div>

Anyway, life is difficult for her and I have tried to depict
this harsh reality in my painting.</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is a scene from Ahmedabad. The city still has
such old and beautiful buildings which have managed to stand through the
passage of time although sadly they are being brought down to make way for the
new modern buildings. Some groups organize heritage walks in the old parts of
the city which is an absolute delight for photographers and artists alike.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

This is one of the important landmark buildings in Bengaluru - the Mayo Hall. I did this from my reference photograph that I took when I lived there for a couple of years. The building was painted in white then. Recently it was changed to red, which might look good to people, but to us painters, particularly watercolorists, it might not be so because the red sometimes feels chalky/opaque and may get muddy thereby losing the essence of watercolors- transparency and vibrancy.</div>

I remember a quote by the famous pastel artist Harley Brown that in a painting, the center of interest needn't be big. On the contrary, a small center of interest when placed appropriately, becomes more powerful. This is well proved in this painting. The center of interest here is the bright illuminated part of the shoreline, which comparatively, is a small portion in the painting . This painting also serves as an example of dominant color scheme, which is blue here. The monotony of this blue space is broken by the introduction of complementary colors yellow-orange, thereby creating a contrast and drama in the painting.<br />
Hope you enjoy it!</div>
