After a rain spell

Watercolor on Paper ( 18" x 18" )

It was monsoon season last month. This is done from a reference photograph which I took during that period.

    An ordinary street scene, but you always make something beautiful of it. Wonderful!

    Ramesh, Always a pleasure to view your art. Nice control of intensities and values moving back in the picture plane. Your aerial perspective always gives your pieces so much impact. Great job.

    Good work, Ramesh, this cyclist is caught by an extraordinary mastery, in a humid environment totally.
    Regards.

    I love the feeling of "wetness" you have created in the scene as a whole and in particular, on the road.It feels as though the rain has stopped, but there is still a drizzle in the air. This is a beautiful painting, and of course I am partial to rainy day pictures :)

    The road looks wonderfully shiny and slick. You really did capture that "wet" look.

    Great job with that, Ramesh!
