Hey...No one came up with some suitable titles for my last painting except Nithya!
Seems that most of you skipped the text part in my last post :(

  1. Wow. Yet another amazing piece of work. I like how the red contrasts with the muted colours of the foreground. And of course, your bold treatment of the bicycle is stunning. Great work.

    I think the last painting was too mesmerizing for most of us to go read the text... couldn't get my eyes off the painting...

  6. A very effective background and your bicycle though looking so casual, must have been a lot of work!

  10. Very striking painting.The red is dominant, but doesn't overwhelm the bicycle and foreground.
    I think we all read your previous post, but maybe couldn't come up with a title. All that came into my head was "Calm Reflections". Have you seen the titles of my paintings? Mine are so non creative, I hesitate to offer names for others :)

  11. Wonderful painting. STriking combo of red and white. How did you do the spokes of the wheel? Is it gouache? It seems lovely.

  12. Thanks Catherine!
    So now I know the reason why you didn't suggest a title :)
    Sometimes I just get stumped for an apt title!

  16. Ramesh!

    But what does "stick no bills" mean? What does that phrase on the wall refer to?

    The fire-reds and other warm tones just 'pop' in this painting!

  19. Dean,
    Thanks a lot for your kind words! In India, 'stick no bills' generally means that one shouldn't stick any posters on wall :)
