Green

Mixed Media on Paper ( 15" x 20" )

This is a scene of Jodhpur in Rajasthan. Most houses in the old part of the city are painted blue. But some people also choose to color their houses differently like this building, a beautiful green which was so attractive and to complement it, there was a bike parked against its wall!

  4. Beautiful detail and I love the vivid green background. The slight diagonal position lends so much interest and allows that stream of light and shadow to do it's wonderful dance. Lovely work!
